According to one embodiment, a landing gear (4) for a rotorcraft (1) includes two skid tubes (10) and a cross tube (11). The cross tube (11) couples the skid tubes (10) to each other and attaches the skid tubes (10) to a fuselage (3) of the rotorcraft (1). At least a part of the cross tube (11) is made of a composite material so that it becomes possible to achieve both sufficient absorption of energy and preventing the fuselage (3) from coming into contact with a ground surface, at the time of landing the rotorcraft (1), under a more satisfactory condition. Further, according to one embodiment, a rotorcraft (1) includes the above-mentioned landing gear (4) so that it becomes possible to achieve both sufficient absorption of energy and preventing a fuselage (3) from coming into contact with a ground surface, at the time of landing the rotorcraft (1), under a more satisfactory condition.
