There were a number of interesting concepts put forward early this decade creating a major sea bases from carrier-like modules. I also came across this HALSS (Heavy Air Landing Seabase Ship) - anyone know if this is a project or programme?

For anyone interested, the following is a paper describing a possible airborne free-electron laser. It differs from the the ABL currently being developed for the USAF in that it does not use chemicals to generate a beam. You can download the pdf if you are interested in viewing the...

Hi, We can speak about NASA projects which was never built. During the end of 1970s,NASA had launched a program for Energy Efficient Aircraft, a joint NASA/US industry research and development project to reduce by 50 per cent the fuel consumption of future generation civil transport...

Hola!!! I'm interested in information on the evolution of the FCS. These are two models I made from depictions taken out of ARMOR MAGAZINE in 1997. The model is a concept contest winner apparently designed by Dr. Asher Sharoni, from Western Design Howden (WDH) Thanks, Rafa

Can't find much on the site about the FB-22, so I thought I would post these from a couple of years ago. The design has evolved a bit more since then.

The first X-47B is in final assembly. For info and art, go here: http://www.northropgrumman.com/unmanned/

I seem to recall several years back that there was some sort of oddball proposal for a pure tanker aircraft based on the Gulfstream business jet. Might have been for a USAF study, but given the current controversy with the A330 vs. KC-767 (damn, way to screw up the MDS, guys!) and that the USAF...

Current project for a Heavy Transport Helicopter Source: Aviation International News July 17 (Farnborough)

Well, the forum title does say "General Aircraft Discussion" but the heading above that says "Aerospace" and what's cooler than a large explosive fuel filled vessel spewing tons of flame and noise to reach orbit, right? I'm curious as to what might have been the secret USAF satellite orbited on...
