An aircraft includes an airframe having an extending tail and a counter rotating, coaxial main rotor assembly disposed at the airframe including an upper rotor assembly and a lower rotor assembly. A translational thrust system is positioned at the extending tail and provides translational thrust to the airframe. An airframe parasitic drag of the airframe is greater than a main rotor assembly drag of the main rotor assembly. An aircraft includes an airframe having an extending tail and a counter rotating, coaxial main rotor assembly disposed at the airframe including an upper rotor assembly and a lower rotor assembly. A translational thrust system is positioned at the extending tail and provides translational thrust to the airframe. A main rotor assembly drag is at or between about 25% and 40% of a total aircraft drag.
