从美国国防部高级研究计划局开发人员在3月4日宣布继续资助与verticle起飞功能的新型混合动力飞机

0:03If you're looking for a plane that can take off and land vertically, the US Defense Advanced
0:08Research Projects Agency has got you covered.
0:11DARPA released a video on March 4 featuring its latest concept design for a new experimental X-Plane aircraft.
0:17The unmanned vertical takeoff and landing plane features a 4,000 horsepower engine that creates
0:22three megawatts of electricity. This powers 24 electric fans spread along the craft's frame to create thrust.
0:28Other VTOL planes currently have to sacrifice flight speed in favor of range.
0:32Or fuel efficiency in favor of power. However, DARPA's X-Plane concept aims to eliminate these trade-offs.
0:38DARPA awarded the second phase of the plane's design contract to Aurora Flight Sciences this week.
0:44DARPA program manager Ashish Bagai said "just when we thought it had all been done before, the
0:49aurora team found room for ... truly new elements of engineering and technology."
