The Jetmen they are impressive but at 100L / h for 1 place and 0 payload (or almost) there is hardly that Zapata which does worse!

A clay pigeon should hire all these assholes ...

It still looks funny, this thing ...

OSEF because there is hardly that its designer who flies above the moment but it is true that he makes it clever at the parade this year ... then do not forget his HALF crossing the sleeve ... What all the chauvinistic press (or too stupid to understand that a supply halfway is not a crossing) did not dare to qualify as half ...

Not sure that in the end, given the real constraints, it really interests the army (or just for a few copies for very special operations ... the killer flying drone being much more efficient than transporting 80 kg of meat, which is far less effective than 'a machine !!)

I'm talking about something like that, it's a game, but the technology of leisure drones is fully developed (stability, image recognition ...) to make a real drone killer ... Just stay at manage the weight of the ammunition (in the game the bursts are not too realistic on this point ...) and manage the equal and ethical aspect ... And especially the friendly fire!

Hello, who never dreamed of having a radio controlled bird, in addition they are very realistic

A beautiful evolution of a toy still made, created in the 60s: The Tim Bird

Well then ... A vampire taking off who "scrapes" the asphalt from the runway ...

So bad condition of the runway, poor coating quality or poor reactor outlet design (design from 1943 all the same)?

In any case ... this plane is a calf!

However, he had a more than honorable career since he served from 1946 until 1990! So 44 years, good longevity therefore!

The USSR still laid aeronautical wonders ... and all without the current electronics!



The An-225 is also part of it ...

Zapata wasn't polluting enough with his Flyboard environmental crap, his first invention, so he put the cover back:

Well then ... A vampire taking off who "scrapes" the asphalt from the runway ...

So bad condition of the track, lower quality of the surface or poor reactor outlet design (design of 1943 all the same)?

The reactor is located really very, very low compared to the runway, that's why it tears like this ... especially the rotten runways. If the organizers of the demo had known the problem, they would not have authorized take-off on this type of surface.
