Fluidic Propulsive System most silent propulsion for future Drones & Aircraft

fluidicpropulsion

In traditional aircraft design, airframes and engines are designed separately and bolted together. This leads to inefficiencies due to additional drag. The approach also leads to propulsive inefficiencies via non-distributed propulsion. Hovering and VTOL requirements introduce even more complexity, size…...
