《精選》新創公司JetZero研發混合翼客機 Startup JetZero Developing Blended Wing Body Aircraft

幾十年來,客機的基本形狀並沒有太大變化,但未來或許將迎來一場新革命。混合翼飛機是一種新的客機設計,與傳統飛機相比,混合翼飛機具有燃油效率更高 (機身本身就可以提高升力)、機艙空間更寬敞等優點。新創公司JetZero正在開發混合翼客機,並與美國空軍、NASA和FAA合作,爭取在 2030 年之前投入使用。

Startup JetZero Developing Blended Wing Body Aircraft

The basic shape of commercial aircraft has not changed much for decades, but the future may see a new revolution. Blended Wing Body (BWB) aircraft is a new design that offers advantages over traditional aircraft, such as higher fuel efficiency (the fuselage itself can generate lift) and more spacious cabin space. Startup JetZero is developing BWB aircraft and is working with the US Air Force, NASA, and the FAA, expecting to put the aircraft into service by 2030.
