Kamov A-7

Overview

The Kamov A-7 is a Soviet two-seat wing-type autogyro with a three-blade rotor, developed by Nikolai Kamov and built by the Central Aerohydronamic Institute (TsAGI). It was the world's first combat autogyro and the first mass-produced rotary-wing aircraft in the USSR. Two experimental machines were built, the A-7 and A-7bis, and five production aircraft (A-7-3A) were completed.
