The Mohawk is a triple-engine helicopter with decent armour around the frame of the helicopter.  Due to the triple engine setup and very bulky air frame the Mohawk is considerably less maneuverable when compared to the other commercially available helicopters.  Notably, the design incorporated a tail rotor that is positioned much higher than normal to prevent damage on landing.
