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