About the Focke-Achgelis Fa-223 Drache:
The Fa-223 Drache was a revolutionary German helicopter that achieved operational status during World War II, making it the first helicopter to enter production and military service. Designed by Heinrich Focke, it featured an innovative twin intermeshing rotor configuration that provided excellent stability and lifting capability. The Fa-223 could carry up to four passengers or equivalent cargo, and several examples performed rescue and transport missions during the war. Its advanced design influenced post-war helicopter development worldwide.
