What a fantastic idea and concept.:)

Very smart design however it's just too risky for real world.... military and most certainly commercial applications. First off the rotor blades need to much longer than what's depicted to be able to have appreaciable lift. That would make it impractical when it folds inwards which would make it extremely long and cumbersome and secondly it would present a huge safety hazard for the blades to be on the underside of the carriage.

In case of an emergency etc or in case of an autorotation the rotors 'stuck' underneath the helo would most certainly lead to a catatrosphic landing.

We've got another cool CG here. According to Sina.com, this is designed by a Turkish company.

Hehehe...the one showed 130mm and 150mm main guns around the carrier. I thought that was pretty priceless.

Heck...if they want to see what future carriers and Marine assault ships REALLY are going to look like...as in they are actually being built and not just CGI...they need look no further:

Futuristic Marine Assault, the America class
But those are nice CGIs. LOL!
