Reduction gear is mounted inside propulsor housing in its center portion. Drive shaft of reduction gear is received by hole of one of journals. Driven shaft of reduction hear is mounted vertically in bearings of propulsor housing. Secured separately on driven shaft are upper and lower groups of disks. Each disk may have smooth upper surface. Lower surface of disk may be provided with blind passages of round or square section. These passages may be located over concentric circles in even number in each of them. Front and rear vertical take-off propulsors are mounted for probable inclination in transversal plane by means of hydraulic mechanism kinematically linked with control pedals.
