HELICOPTER HAVING MEANS FOR THE AERODYNAMIC SUPPORT OF THE TORQUE EQUALIZATION
First Claim
1. A helicopter having at least one main rotor (2), situated on an airframe (1), on which a tail rotor (4) is additionally attached spaced apart from the airframe (1) via a tail boom (3) for torque equalization, the tail boom (3) being provided with means for the aerodynamic support of the torque equalization,characterized in that the means for the aerodynamic support of the torque equalization comprise at least one auxiliary wing (5a, 5b), extending along the tail boom (3) on the side facing away from the main rotor rotational direction, for flow acceleration of the exhaust air of the main rotor (2) passing this area.

Abstract
A helicopter has at least one main rotor (2) situated on an airframe (1), on which a tail rotor (4) is additionally attached spaced apart from the airframe (1) via a tail boom (3) for torque equalization. The tail boom (3) is provided with elements for the aerodynamic support of the torque equalization, which include at least one auxiliary wing (5a, 5b), extending along the tail boom (3) on the side facing away from the main rotor rotational direction, for flow acceleration of the exhaust air of the main rotor (2) passing this area.
