SH-60K Rotor Blade

Main rotor blade of anti-submarine patrol helicopter SH-60K has a strange shape at the end. The rotor is one of the parts modified from the original SH-60J. It is said the rotor increased the maximum gross weight from 9.7t to 10.9t. However, the increased air resistance reduces the maximum speed by 30km/h.
