The invention is related to a rotorcraft (1) with at least one main rotor (1a) and a fuselage (2), comprising: a tail boom (2a) connected to the fuselage, the tail boom extending in a longitudinal direction (2c) from the fuselage toward a duct-type portion (7); a shroud (3) provided at the duct-type portion and forming a transverse duct (6) comprising a circumferential direction (14) and a longitudinal extension (6a) oriented at least essentially perpendicular to the circumferential direction and the longitudinal direction of the tail boom; and at least one ducted tail rotor (8a) rotatably arranged in the transverse duct; wherein the shroud comprises a first section (9) connected to the tail boom and a second section (10) spaced apart from the tail boom and diametrically opposed to the first section, the first section comprising an airfoil-like aerodynamic profile (9a).
