The rotor/transmission mount
consists of an eight-legged metal truss that sup
ports the mast base and the static mast. The transmission gearbox mounts beneath
the mast base and the rotor turns on the static mast tube on a set of tapered roller
thrust bearings. Two of the truss tubes on the right side of the aircraft are removable
for transmission maintenance.
Graphite/epoxy cowlings
and access doors on top of the fuselage enclose the equip
ment located there.
Saddle mounts
in the lower fuselage clamp the forward and aft landing gear cross
tubes in place.

num foil molded into the surface, with all components electrically bonded together.
Electromagnetic pulse protection (EMP) is provided by the aluminum structure,
the expanded aluminum foil on the graphite skins, and the shielding of individual
electric/avionics systems components and wiring.
