Un avion militaire à décollage et atterrissage verticaux voit le jour
Picture MUST credit: Bell A jet powered vertical take-off and landing transformer-style military aircraft that uses helicopter-style rotor blades to get airborne. When it is in the air, the rotors of the X-Plane fold away into their wing nacelles enabling the plane to put the power on. The aircraft is being developed by US aerospace and defence company Bell as part of a programme by the USA’s DARPA defence agency called SPRINT. Helicopters have the advantage of vertical takeoffs and landings in rough country but speed is limited. Jets have peed but need runways. Even vertical take-off jump jets require a flat landing surface. The SPRINT project is aimed at making an aircraft that can take off, land, and hover then transition into a jet when in vertical flight. Bell’s X-plane tilts its rotor nacelles forward after take-off for horizontal flight. They then fold back into the nacelle. Picture supplied by JLPPA
