FIELD: aviation. SUBSTANCE: blade has air intake and outlet nozzle which are connected with air-breathing engine. Blade is provided with axial-flow nozzle located at end of blade and directed along its axis, passages for connection of air-breathing engine with air intake, as well as with outlet and axial-flow nozzles. Provision is also made for gas distributing device located between above-mentioned passages used for connecting with above-mentioned air breathing engine which is mounted along axis of rotation of propeller. Vertical takeoff and landing are performed by means of proposed combination blade; horizontal flight is effected before and after braking till complete stop of main rotor at efflux of gases from rear outlet nozzle perpendicularly to longitudinal axis of blade and/or efflux of gases from nozzle located along longitudinal axis of blade depending on direction of flight and/or required direction of thrust vector. EFFECT: enhanced maneuverability; improved aerodynamic characteristics. 3 cl, 8 dwg
