Prototype - S-67 Blackhawk (same name as the UH-60, but it's a different helicopter). Built in the 1970, it was intended as an attack chopper. In the end, the US Army opted for the AH-64 Apache, and the sole prototype was lost in a fatal crash

LHX Attack Chopper for MS-DOS PC (Electronic Arts/1990) is a combat helicopter simulator featuring the AH-64 Apache, UH-60 Blackhawk, V-22 Osprey and the LHX (Light Helicopter Experimental) itself. Fun fact: its author, Brent Iverson, who later designed Chuck Yeager's Air Combat, also ported Amiga's Deluxe Paint 2 to DOS PC and Apple IIGS.

The Lockheed XF-90 was a 1940s USAF long-range penetration fighter prototype that was the first USAF jet to have afterburners and first Lockheed jet to fly supersonic(in a dive). It had swept wings and an unusual adjustable vertical stabilizer that slid fore/aft . The first prototype lacked afterburners and was so underpowered it needed RATO rockets to takeoff. Influenced the F-104, but placed 2nd to the XF-88 Voodoo, partly because the design proved to be underpowered. The 2nd prototype survived 3 atomic blasts and is on display at the NMUSAF in Dayton, Ohio or what is left of it.👀 Bonus Fact (for sticking around): Starred in Blackhawk DC comics (50's-64).

Whenever you see an F-35B on a routine Vertical take-off, remember we came a long (and painful) trek of testing and development to reach the standards of readiness that we have today... June 10 1964: a prototype XV-4, an experimental VTOL jet, crashes in Georgia (US), test pilot William J. Ingram dies. Control was lost after the aircraft transitioned from conventional to vertical flight. Reportedly, the pilot chose not to eject so he could fly the stricken jet away from a residential area. The airman lost in the accident was an Army civil test pilot, William J. Ingram, aged 43. (Even though the XV-4 was an experimental type – built by Lockheed - at the time of the accident, it was operated by the US Army) The XV-4 - officially named “Hummingbird” - was part of a US Army project in the feasibility of a VTOL jet in surveillance operations, using target-acquisition and sensory equipment. Only two prototypes were built, and both were lost in accidents. (This one was registered as “62-4503”) Video - Amazing Info TV

Douglas XB-19 heavy bomber prototype takes to the air in 1941. The project was intended to test flight characteristics and design techniques for large bombers but with the wartime pace of advances in technology was obsolete before it was completed.

FPV drone footage shared by Iraqi militias, showing strikes against a AN/MPQ-64 Sentinel radar and a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter at Camp Victory in Baghdad. Hard to tell how badly the chopper was hit. In any case, first visual confirmation of FPV hits on US combat assets.

An absolute legend of gaming history turns 40 this year: Gunship by Microprose was released in 1986. For many, many years it remained the undisputed benchmark for helicopter combat simulations. It was universally praised for its graphics, weapons, sound, controls, realistic physics, and documentation (the famously long and historically accurate MicroProse manuals, this one was over 80 pages long). You fly an AH-64 Apache and can play endlessly in the career mode (no classic "end game scenario"), reaching a rank as high as Brigadier General. By the end of the 80s it had sold over half a million copies, making it one of MicroProse's most successful games of the decade.

My original post, identifying the helicopter as: ‘Fury 147 is a UH-60 assigned to the Connecticut Army National Guard. Flight tracker has it in the area at the correct time.’ my original post which included the link, disappeared and my 𝕏 was throttled for ~24 hours. I never involved myself in any speculation as to why the incident occurred, I was simply responding to over 50 users DMing me to identify the helicopter. WTF?

For anyone thinking "Su-47" was the forward-swept wing concept fighter the Russians built in the 90s, seen on the video. Being a prototype, expected the cockpit to be crude and unfinished, as the pictures on the OP show... or in this case, might simply be "Russian"

In Copenhagen, Bjarke Ingels, Peter Madsen, and realities:united built a real Vortex Ring steam ring prototype. Pressure pulses formed stable toroidal flows, but the full-scale chimney system was never installed. Here is the prototype pretty sweet

This is the Praying Mantis, a bizarre and unique British prototype from WWII. The vehicle was difficult to control, and induced sickness in the crew(!) - the plan was therefore abandoned in 1944. The sole surviving example is part of our collection, here at The Tank Museum.
