There has been at least one helicopter with two primary rotors and no
tail rotor.  Whether the two primaries (one fore, one aft) were counter-
rotating or not, I don't know.  I also don't know its official designa-
tion, but it looked like a flying banana with a rotor at each end, and
no tail rotor.  It was in service in 1958, and quite possibly much
earlier.
