this is why i dont like helicopters. if rotors fail or engine fails its game over lol

at least with airliners there are multiple engines.

you'd think after all of these decades engineers would have developed a helicopter with emergency rotating thrusters by now. like if the helicopter rotors fail they would have three emergency thrusters to rotate in place, stabilize the helicopter horizontically and vertically, and safely land the helicopter.

but nope. there are idiots in charge everywhere basically. from the government to civil engineering, to aviation, etc...

Unironically, I learned how unsafe helicopters could be from playing GTAV back in the day.

This one was 45 years old and Iran doesn't have access to its spare parts.
