Helicopter with wheels
Many Western helicopters are equipped with wheels (wheeled landing gear), especially those designed for heavy loads, VIP transport, or military operations. Unlike helicopters with skids, wheels allow for easier rolling on the ground, particularly on paved surfaces such as taxiways or hangars.

Advantages of wheeled landing gear on helicopters
Ground mobility: Enables easy rolling on taxiways and in hangars.
Higher speed: Retractable wheels reduce air resistance and increase travel speed.
Heavy-duty capability: Better suited for heavy helicopters and large payloads.
These helicopters are frequently used in areas such as military, VIP transport, offshore operations, and rescue services, where the advantages of a wheeled landing gear are particularly evident. They all require suitable wheel chocks .
