Paul- the reason that it's only got provision for three blades is because that is a tail rotor hub for what I think is a Mil-17 Hip. The reason it's a '17 is that the hub is on the port side hence it's orientation. The operating rods are also a giveaway-a main rotor head doesn't have that arrangement of the operating rods .
