How US is Testing its Most Advanced VTOL Programs Ever

[@steveyountz1757]

"0:51 first helicopter to exceed 200 miles per in level flight"........Really? I think you are off by about 100MPH. Think it just nudged about 105 MPH.

[@sean-1002]

That Lilium is quite cool.

[@jimmy_wang_]

Yeah wonder how long it takes between flights to charge

[@atom7nine]

Textron/Bell absolutely fabulous

[@io9883]

It needs to be transformed into a seaplane version that can hover on the water, take off and land, and can withstand harsh sea conditions. It can be automated and unmanned, and the maximum speed can be increased to 700-1200 kilometers.

To make VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) aircraft faster, more efficient, and safer, several design and technological advancements can be considered: • **Improved Propulsion Systems**: Developing more efficient and powerful propulsion systems, such as advanced electric motors, hybrid-electric propulsion, or distributed propulsion systems, can increase speed and efficiency. These systems can also reduce noise and vibration. • **Aerodynamic Optimization**: Optimizing the aircraft's aerodynamic design, such as using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind tunnel testing, can reduce drag and increase lift. This can be achieved through the use of advanced materials, such as composites, and innovative designs, like blended-wing configurations. • **Tiltrotor and Tiltwing Designs**: Tiltrotor and tiltwing designs can offer improved efficiency and speed by transitioning from vertical to horizontal flight. These designs can also reduce the complexity and weight of traditional VTOL systems. • **Distributed Propulsion**: Distributed propulsion systems, where multiple small propellers or fans are used, can provide improved efficiency, safety, and redundancy. These systems can also reduce the risk of single-point failures. • **Advanced Materials and Structures**: Using advanced materials, such as composites and smart materials, can reduce weight and increase strength. This can lead to improved efficiency, speed, and safety. • **Autonomous Systems and Sensors**: Implementing autonomous systems and advanced sensors can improve safety by reducing pilot workload and enhancing situational awareness. These systems can also enable more efficient flight planning and navigation. • **Electric and Hybrid-Electric Propulsion**: Electric and hybrid-electric propulsion systems can offer improved efficiency, reduced noise, and lower emissions. These systems can also provide increased safety through reduced vibration and improved reliability. • **Redundancy and Fail-Safe Systems**: Implementing redundancy and fail-safe systems can improve safety by reducing the risk of single-point failures. These systems can also enable continued safe flight in the event of a failure. • **Advanced Avionics and Flight Control Systems**: Implementing advanced avionics and flight control systems can improve safety by providing enhanced situational awareness, improved navigation, and more efficient flight planning. • **Certification and Regulatory Frameworks**: Establishing clear certification and regulatory frameworks can ensure that VTOL aircraft meet strict safety standards and are designed with safety in mind. • **Testing and Validation**: Conducting thorough testing and validation can ensure that VTOL aircraft meet performance, efficiency, and safety requirements. This can include flight testing, simulation, and analysis. By incorporating these advancements, VTOL aircraft can become faster, more efficient, and safer, enabling their widespread adoption for various applications, including urban air mobility, cargo transport, and search and rescue operations.

Is the vtol aircrafts are fully runs on electric.

Looks like Toothless.

Wow, this must cost at least 10.000 dollar.

Yall catch that UAV tilted rotor with the 16 AGM-114, looks wild ! 3:39

I'm gasping for air. That's not even in GTA! Not in any update, Ever!

[@toncastanho]

Um dúvida: o raio de giro das hélices permite que seja colocado sobre a cabine, o radar do E-2 Hawkeye?? Faria com que esse tipo de radar pudesse ser utilizado em porta helicópteros (mesmo que este não seja marítimo, nem pensado para atuar em embarcações por suas hélices e "braços de sustentação" não serem retráteis, entre outros motivos). O mesmo raciocínio valeria para o V-22 Osprey, mas parece financeiramente absurdo.

[@TechCrazy]

Is this the V22 Osprey? It was almost cancelled due to high accident rates.

[@TechCrazy]

@allday90 And it's record is good?

[@verdebusterAP]

The V-22 did not have high accident rates its was people inflating things they knew nothing about

Helicopter+airplane= that plane 😂🤣

[@TomokosEnterprize]

One day we may all have something like these in all our driveways. Or for those t6har rember Buck Rogers back pacts ? S5M is one that catches my eye.

[@Fevebblefester]

The idea frightens me to death after decades of watching people drive cars. Imagine drunk helicopter flyers. 😳

[@TomokosEnterprize]

@@Fevebblefester I sure hear you on that one. I broke my neck and lost my R leg messing around with a drunk driver. Driving along when he just turned Left right in front of me. There will hopefully have blow before you go tech in place by then.

[@TomokosEnterprize]

@@Fevebblefester I hope they will have the Jetsons like systems in place to auto fly everyone back and forth.

Hi

Blackhawks is still superiour

[@n3v3rforgott3n9]

... except the Valor outclasses the Black Hawk in nearly every metric.

They’re called Powered Lift aircraft

According to my family history, my great grandfather was the first pilot of vertical flight in the United States.

Zašto ne ćetiri motora i drugaćiji oblik trupa letjelicebila bi pokretnija stabilnija veća nosivost već ubitaćna moć zašto ne.

[@akkseljohansson3601]

P2:35 that’s not. Correct. The 280 Valor is the future replacement for the aging Blackhawks.

[@T0750]

Im sorry, I dont see the advantages, the thing is too small for transport and those engines are hugeeee targets. Maybe for distance...but insertion and extraction of troops...

[@n3v3rforgott3n9]

... It carries more troops. It will also be in the hot zone for half the time compared to any other helicopter.

[@MattDavis_BeechingsGhosts]

Am I expected to believe that the US invented the helicopter in 1936?

[@n3v3rforgott3n9]

Yes the first "modern" helicopter was made around that time. I believe the first helicopter to ever fly was in France in the early 1930s.

[@MattDavis_BeechingsGhosts]

@@n3v3rforgott3n9 so yes the US invented the helicopter?

[@n3v3rforgott3n9]

@@MattDavis_BeechingsGhosts partially... the helicopter had many theoretically designs WAY before it was ever successfully built. A US inventor made what we know as the "modern" helicopter with the control surfaces found on nearly every traditional helicopter.
