Air Ship Technologies
Abstract
Pelican is a hybrid airship that will be able to vertically land and take off at maximum gross weight. Additionally, it will be a heavier than air vehicle during ground operations. This makes Pelican unique among existing airships or other hybrid airships in development. This project will assist in the acceleration of the Pelican flight demonstration, moving its planned execution from late FY 2013 to late FY 2012.
