Orka is planned to weigh 220kg. Those stub wings can handle that weight. That tracks with all other light weight naval helicopters as well.

In case y'all are worried about weight, AW159 which is literally in the same weight class with the same type of engines can comfortably carry two torpedoes or even 20 Martlet missiles
