First US Aircorps helicopter to receive the R- designation. Two seater, lateral tandem rotor layout, with rotors mounted on winglike pylons. XR-1 was extensively tested, but not adopted for service, due to protracted developement, and the war ending. First flight May 1941, last flight June 1946. 07/16/2000 @ 12:33 [ref: 452] |
