I think this confirms the mini-rotorcraft is in service...

WTF what could be the point of this?Wouldn’t it be risky to ride it?

Looks like something from a Ghibli movie. I can’t decide whether it is cool or stupid

If you want to avoid risks, then don’t join the military. Find a desk job firmly on the first floor close to the exit. Those who sign up for the Chinese special forces will have no problem riding this.

Riding it is no problem. Getting shot at while doing it is the problem.

It could be a good idea if they are only going to use them where they have air superiority. Gives the soldiers a lot of mobility over friendly territory.

Performing a role in modern warfare similar to what bicycle troops did in WW1?

Air superiority? Do most of your run-of-the-mill terrorists have air defense radars or an air force for that matter? Let me reiterate: these are for special forces, not for massed frontal assault. There are plenty of scenarios where these might come in handy.

That's typical for this TYLER ROGOWAY person. I have seen some of his dump, same tone, same smell.

I think some people are getting their panties unnecessarily in a tangle here. Rogoway did NOT say it was a copy. What he does say is: 'So it is unlikely to be any sort of a copy, although the D-21's influence may be present.'

There it is... 'influences may be present' - which is very probably true. Chill out ladies :D

This looks like something that would be very easy to break down in to components and pack away for reassembly later. This would be ideal for stealthily getting an air assault element in place close to a target. You could use everything from cars, to trucks, to trains, to submarines.

I like it.

It looks like a motorcycle helicopter.

I imagine this can be very useful for aerial recon. Perhaps it will be used for border patrols in mountainous regions?
