I'd love to see this concept on a 075... a troop transport and/or gunship of sortsI agree with all of Moshin and Dishi's point.
I think this is a good case where perhaps the civil-mil fusion can take the lead and create a business case before military vendors can take a proven design and stack some armor and weapons. I imagine there are extremities in the BRI project that a large VTOL / V-44can work.

The Bell OH-58 and OH-6 are some examples that comes to mind.
