Airbus / Eurocopter makes some impressive helicopters. The H135 (AKA EC135) and H145 (AKA EC145) are quite fast. Love the #Fenestron

Westland SA.341B Gazelle AH.1, Army Air Corps The Gazelle was built under a joint production agreement with Aerospatiale. Using a 'fenestron', or shrouded tail rotor, this advanced design served the British Army, Royal Air Force and Royal Marines, in communications, battlefield reconnaissance, training and light attack roles. This restored example is seen at the East Midlands Aeropark at East Midlands International Airport. #Aerospatiale #Westland #helicopter, #fenestron #tailrotor #trainer, #reconnaissance #attack #rotorcraft #avgeek #aviation #museum #EastMidlands #EastMidlandsInternationalAirport #EMIA #airport #RoyalNavy #RoyalAirForce #ArmyAirCorps #SA341 #Gazelle

The #EC145 is a development of the #BK117 and In the picture, that's easy to see, especially by the configuration of the tail.
Later versions of this #helicopter, later on renamed to #H145, have a #fenestron (a ducted tail rotor), as this video from #ILA #Berlin #AirShow 2014 shows:
