There was the AH-1G Cobra...
Then the AH-1W Super Cobra
This is the AH-1XX Mega Cobra!
It's a fake build by a modeler based on the Italeri 1/48 scale AH-1Z Viper.
Or a delirium by the Bell Textron engineers working late on a Friday night ;)
Imagine the drag...

Imagine the drag...
also the rear rotar is to counteract the spining from the main rotor, it slows down and speeds up to turn on it's axis. It has one facong forwards which wouldnt counteract it, it would be a spinning mess.... (Unless Im missing something?)

You are :).. there is vertical air stream direction wing behind propeler rotor... But I think its hard to make steady hover with that. because many air still is pushed backward....

The air is pushed "backward" by a turbo fan and there is a rudder-like tail that directs the air left or right and acts as a tail rotor. Nice model btw!
