High Speed & Efficient Vertical Take-off and Landing

Abstract

Perform Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) research investigations in propulsion, aeromechanics and platform technologies to explore, innovate and combine the most promising technologies to enable more efficient hover, high-speeds, and greater maneuverability at longer ranges for Army aviation. Reconfigurable and adaptive technologies include hover rotor systems that can achieve high speed, low drag; aerodynamic lift technologies capable of higher speed and efficient cruise; and convertible propulsion technologies to deliver more efficient hover and higher speed cruise power.
