陀螺仪QH-50 DASH – 照片和视频

这 吉罗迪恩 QH-50 短跑 （无人机反潜直升机）是美国吉罗迪恩公司制造的小型无人机直升机，用于在船只上用作远程反潜武器，否则其体积太小，无法操作全尺寸直升机。它一直生产到1969年。今天，仍有一些角色用于各种陆上角色。

这 吉罗迪恩 QH-50 短跑 (Drone Anti-Submarine Helicopter) was a small, unmanned helicopter developed by Gyrodyne Company of America in the late 1950s for the United States Navy. It was designed to carry a single torpedo or other payload and operate from the decks of destroyers and frigates as a guided weapon system. The QH-50 was the first operational drone helicopter and the first rotary-wing aircraft to be used in combat by the US Navy.
QH-50由船上的操作员使用安装在无人机上的无线电链路和电视摄像机进行远程控制。操作员可以指挥QH-50使用其声学制导鱼雷搜索，定位和攻击敌方潜艇。QH-50还可以执行侦察、监视、目标指定和电子战任务。QH-50 的航程约为 30 英里（48 公里），速度高达 80 节（150 公里/小时）。它可以在高达 12,000 英尺（3,660 米）的高度飞行，并悬停长达两个小时。
这 QH-50 was first deployed in 1962 and saw extensive service during the Vietnam War, where it was used to attack North Vietnamese coastal targets and patrol boats. The QH-50 also participated in the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Dominican Republic intervention, and the Iran-Iraq War. The QH-50 was retired from active service in 1979, but some were used for testing and training purposes until the early 1990s. The QH-50 was a pioneering example of a drone helicopter and paved the way for later developments in unmanned aerial vehicles.
