Can an airplane operate without elevators, flaps and rudders for flight control?
The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) says ‘Yes’ and it has homed in on a potential alternative system.
DARPA’s new X-plane concept will remove moving external control surfaces, shifting from a century of standard aviation design practices.
DARPA has moved into the next phase of its Control of Revolutionary Aircraft with Novel Effectors program, or CRANE. The project is centered on an experimental uncrewed aircraft, which Aurora Flight Sciences, a subsidiary of Boeing, is developing.
In this video Defense Updates analyzes how DARPA’s new X-plane concept would change the way US Air Force goes to future wars?
