I mean, I’d have gone with bikes and buses, but yeah, sure, VTOL air taxis.

Ok, not just the Cold War. There's a rich well of stuff from when before the GWOT completely sucked up all R&D money too.

Whats that?! A shiny NEW 5th generation fighter that hasn't been outperformed by the Vietnam era F-16 in every function aside from #VerticalTakeoffOrLanding (VTOL) in so many testing its comical, like the F-35?
AND theyll be constructed in #Canada by #Canadians?? Yes please! 🇨🇦 🇸🇪 #Cdnmilitary

“The vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) drone is designed to intercept Russian mid-range, conventional propulsion kamikaze drones, namely in theatres where conventional launches are complicated. The VTOL was developed in partnership with a Ukrainian start-up.”

Revisiting an older project, and while the next iteration of Crash//Cart is going to allow much more player-driven characters, the art from the first version had such character!
Look at these sad-sack VTOL ambulance pilots.
I hope to keep the action-figure accessories, at least.

The Jetson One is a personal electric VTOL, with a ceiling of 1500 feet, speeds of up to 60 mph, carries 200 lbs and a flight time of 20 minutes.
Yes, its a giant $125,000 drone.

Do I have any mechanical engineering friends on here? My husband is a coast guard vet, built an autonomous robot from scratch this past summer, has manufacturing experience at a VTOL company at a previous internship, and he is currently participating in NASA’s Human Exploration Rover challenge,

Yeah!
I think the back wings/fins/motors/whatever they are rotated for like, VTOL? But sure, yes, animated ship configurations are always welcome

The planes Greb made today including:
A vtol brick, the smallest plane it could feasibly make, just a straight up SU-47, & the pancake plane: Vought V-173
Surprising nobody, the SU-47 was the best plane it made

The flight model is so much fun. This is very much filling a niche for me with physics realistic enough to be really interesting and fun, but the systems are still roughly in the simplified VTOL VR ballpark.

Hijong Park's Defender Patrol has been released! This game started as a "I'm going to make an MD500 game because nobody else will," and has evolved into a little battlefield with interactive cockpits and simlite realism. If you have a joystick, the helicopter is really fun to throw around.

Throwing light helos around in Test Pilots (VRChat world) the last couple of days, to the point where *I* had to take a break for motion sickness.
Some of the things I've learned to do in that little bird though.... need to translate that into VTOL VR or ARMA sometime!

VTOL, the capability that looks super cool for action figures but hits you with insane engineering penalties when you want to, yknow, do anything in the air
Shield AI has developed X-Bat, an unmanned, AI-piloted fighter jet with vertical takeoff and landing capabilities.
The X-Bat will be piloted by an AI software developed by Shield AI called Hivemind.

um, actually, the Martin Baker ejection seat is the most expensive part of an F-35. Take that out, and you can get some all-aspect broadband VLO Joint MUM-T AI-enabled MOSA-compliant giga-scale digitally-engineered thrust-vectoring VTOL bullshit at a fraction the cost of a manned fighter.

What kind of adversary can the US military potentially encounter around the world? How about a non-state/terrorist/secessionist group armed with FPV and VTOL drones and fiber optic UAVs? That's already the case in Africa. lawfaremedia.org/article/afri...
