Dumb question here by a civilian non-aviator:
What’s the virtue of a triple tail on the Lakota?
More agile manuevering?
Probably. I do know that it should lower the airspeed at which they take over the yaw function. But at very low forward speeds they are not going to do much, it will be up to the tail rotor. In fact they might be detrimental in maneuvering at low speeds in cross-winds.
Fench featherbedding!
