Why America never built its own ground-effect missile plane
In the 1970s the David Taylor Naval Ship Research and Development Center in Bethesda, Maryland designed the PAR-WIG, a power-augmented ram wing-in-ground-effect aircraft meant to skim just above the ...
Aurora Flight Sciences has released a new video of its revolutionary wing-in-ground-effect Liberty Lifter concept aircraft that it's developing for DARPA. The aircraft uses ground effect to lift heavy ...
Boeing has outlined more details of the high-capacity, long-range cargo aircraft concept dubbed the Pelican, or ultra-large transport aircraft (ULTRA). Under study by the Phantom Works for military ...
Regent has shown off some of their recent Viceroy seaglider testing in bits and pieces as Spring turns to Summer, highlighting its program’s headway in developing electric ‘flight’ in ground effect.
The Vertical Flight Society announced that dozens of the world’s electric aircraft developers and tech experts will be presenting at the 19th Annual Electric Aircraft Symposium (EAS) in Oshkosh, ...
Ground effect is a aerodynamic phenomenon that reduces induced drag when an aircraft flies close to a surface, resulting in improved performance such as lower thrust requirements or the ability to fly ...
The Squire is designed for speeds up to 70 kt. (81 mph), an operational range of more than 100 nm and a 50-lb. payload. Credit: Regent Craft NORTH KINGSTOWN, Rhode Island–Regent has completed the ...
Russia’s TsAGI central aerohydrodynamic institute has conducted low-speed wind tunnel testing of an integrated wing/body concept for a heavy transport aircraft. The aircraft is designed to carry 500 ...
Ground effect is a natural aerodynamic phenomenon where an airfoil experiences increased lift and reduced induced drag when flying close to a surface, often mishandled by pilots. Instead of fighting ...
