In what way are you concerned about it working?
The exact shape of a fictional airframe? Its virtually guaranteed to be dogshit compared a real one, but this one looks like its probably aerodynamic to fly with enough engine power thrown at it.
Coaxial contra-rotating blades? Yes, those work and are found on a number of real helicopter designs, including several Soviet/Russian designs like Ka-27 and Ka-52 and an advanced US prototype, Sikorsky's Raider/Raider X
Drones with visible wienerpits? Kinda stupid, but it happens in real life, usually only with designs retrofitted for drone operation rather than on clean sheet drone designs though.
Design of its vintage and size from an unknown startup seeing military service without a pusher prop or tilt rotors? Absolute fiction, it never happened, we made it up.
You would need something on the tail to stabilize it. Also a place to store your samurai swords because obviously that’s a thing business executives need to carry around in a dystopian future for some reason.
Stole that old bastards katana, along with everything else not nailed to the floor in that penthouse. Would have stolen that iguana too if I'd known you could.
>You would need something on the tail to stabilize it.
You don't actually, that's why you have two rotors on top, they spin in opposing directions (and make the shaft a complex maintenance nightmare) and cancel the unwanted rotation energy out without the need for a tail rotor.
Actually, I retract my statement. The blades in OP pic are articulated and have flexible joints, that will not allow for the required stiffness of the blade connection to the hub. The blades need to be directly connected to the hub with very limited to no flapping motion so they don't shred each other. That design is a suicide device.
Why wouldn't it?
well that is what I am asking
It's gonna be a fat frick but if you throw enough power at the problem it'll fly
looks like it'll have a lot of weight.
Already does.

Looks cute. But yes, it should work. Now add a laser on it and some rockets.
I hate cyberpunk 2077 so much bro's

You can see there is a horizontal fan prop on the tail instead of the traditional vertical, which seems stupid but might be able to do just that.
I take it you saw the Arasaka logo as well.

sure, its a fat frick but nothing too outlandish
worst thing i can think of is the wienerpit being kinda stupid
You mean a coaxial rotor? We have those. They work, they're just complicated.
For that small distance between rotors the blades need to be way stiffer than usual, but there are prototypes like that.
