Helicopter?
Helicopters created nowadays generally have 2 or 3 blades. The fastest recorded helicopter has 3 blades. as it revolves more pressure is put forth and therefore the helicopter travels faster
None. The world's fastest helicopter only measured 249.1 mph.
Currently, the fastest helicopter in the US military is the CH-47F Chinook with a top speed of 196 mph (315 kp/h).
The world's fastest is the Eurocopter X3 , which flies at 300 mph. -( The Apache flies at 227, and Bell's Viper at 255. )
In a straight line by helicopter.
Well, there are some airplanes which can be outrun by helicopters, but, for the most part, airplanes are faster.
The fastest are attack helicopters like Apache, they mostly fly about 230 -250 mph.
The fastest car is faster than the fastest police helicopter. However, cars are generally limited to roads and traversible ground, whereas a helicopter can fly a straight line from point A to point B. There are several instances of criminals with fast cars who have managed to lose police helicopters in pursuit. However, they pale into insignificance against the criminals in fast cars who don't. The physics of any rotary wing propulsion device restricts it's forward speed to around 250 mph. The fastest helicopter in the world currently is the Westland Lynx with a maximum forward speed of 249.10 mph.
