Trends & Innovations: Army Eyes Flying Rescue Truck
A new
“transformer” type truck can also fly.
The aptly named Black Night Transformer unmanned robotic vehicle will
operate like a standard utility truck.
When needed though, it has 8 rotors that deploy for flying. Like side mirrors on cars, they can fold in
for flying down narrow streets, then tilt forward for faster flight. The machine, developed by Advanced Tactics,
is undergoing tests. It resulted from a
request by the U.S. Army for a “multi-mission medical and casualty evacuation”
vehicle.
