FUTURE WARSHIP

FUTURE WARSHIP

Gryphon, SPELCO, Gryphon Next Generation Parachute System

Personal flight systems may be some time away, but as is the case with such technology, you can expect the military to get their hands on such systems first. While Yves Rossy “The Jetman” may have refused to let the military have his powered wings, other people and companies are unlikely to pass on such a potentially lucrative product. The German venture SPELCO (Special Parachute and Logistics Consortium) would be amongst those glad to create such systems.

SPELCO’s Gryphon Next Generation Parachute system aims to give a similar degree of flying freedom to troopers. The under-development 6-feet wing has a glide ratio of 5:1, allowing soldiers to glide about 30 miles after jumping from a 30000 feet altitude. The wingsuit will allow soldiers to remain airborne for about 15 minutes, at a speed of nearly 60 miles per hour, and an extremely low radar signal. The company also plans to add small motors to the wingsuits, increasing the range to 60 miles, and increasing the scope of stealth missions.

Supersonic Business Jet

SUPERSONIC FUTURE BUSINESS JET


Supersonic Business Jet, Futuristic Aircraft
This supersonic jet is designed by the diploma graduates who are of the view that within 15-20 years supersonic jets will revolutionize the travel for business purposes. This jet will enable the business personnel to fly to another continent and back in one day with complete comfort and most effective use of work time.
The supersonic jet named as ‘Flies’ is designed for the private use and has space for 9 people that include 6 passengers, two pilots, and one flight attendant. It has the maximum flying time of four hours along with unique combination of comfort, quality and functionality. This jet is made of transparent polymer materials that alter light-emitting ability under the influence of electricity.

Its cruising altitude is of 20, 000 meters and glasses are darkened, depending on the illumination of the environment. And to improve the visibility during the takeoff and landing, its cockpit is equipped with a panoramic glazing the bottom of the fuselage. The fuselage is made of composite materials. And its adaptive composites change their configuration under the influence of electricity.

Eco Factor: Concept car powered by a diesel/electric hybrid engine.
Developed as a student project by a team from Domus Academy, the Audi Panzerspahwagen could be the newest craze in the ecofriendly SUV market. The car is being touted as the next-gen Audi Q7, making sustainability, speed and robustness the key components of the car. The car is designed to be powered by a plug-in hybrid platform with R10 based twin-turbo 6L bio-diesel V12 TDI diesel engine and four independent 100KW electric motors mounted in each wheel.

Together with a lightweight aluminum chassis and carbon-Kevlar composite bodywork, the car is designed to have a higher range at high speeds. Energy is also reabsorbed in the car by the built-in regenerative braking mechanism. The Panzerspahwagen design can suit multiple scenarios from urban to military purposes.
Giving it a high-tech look, the car has been designed with wing doors that take up less space and are hydraulically operated for convenience. Read mounted cameras replace the traditional rear-view mirrors, which project the scene on the rear to the dashboard.
The engine receives air from the snorkel air intake, which combined with the raised exhaust ensures complete functionality even under heavily flooded situations. The headlights and taillights will be an array of powerful LEDs that use less energy from the car’s electric drive.
For overcast or foggy days the car carries a motion sensing VR headset combined with completely articulated bifocal infrared night-vision camera that provides an alternate mode of vision.

Designed byOndrej Jirec, the Maserati Tramontane is a concept vehicle which is developed as a part of his studies at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. It’s a lightweight electric luxury supercar, and its design is intended to lower the weight, reduce the No. of body parts, and to simplify building pHaving its length at 4,250mm, Tramontane is just 50mm shorter in length to Lamborghini Gallardo. Its height is 1,170mm which is almost the same as that of Gallardo’s. Its front wheels are driven by an electric motor, whereas the rear ones have an electric motor for each. More images after the jump.
The most striking facet of its design is the number of components and body panels that smoothly move from interior to the exterior. Its parts have different functions, color, material and characteristics that aid more to the overall feel of the vehicle.rocess while combining interior and exterior elements.

Maruti Cervo Car Details and Pictures







Maruti Suzuki are planing to Launch Maruti Cervo Model in india. Maruti Cervo is a Replacement of Maruti Suzuki Alto/Wagon-R. Maruti Cervo is B-Segment car. Maruti Cervo is japanese model and Maruti Suzuki Cervo is the latest small car recently launched in Japan. The Maruti Cervo is a compact five door mini car, that looks to put the other kids on the block into the shade. This sleek cute car offers 54bhp 660cc engine that boasts to offer peppy performance with great fuel economy. The Ex-showroom Price of Maruti Cervo would be between 2 Lakh to 3 Lakh, by using a cheaper material to make it cost less, but, we doubt that Suzuki will use such cheap material so long as price is considered. The name Maruti Cervo has been a history for jap Suzuki cars mainly used in the Japanese version of alto. The 800 will be removed and the Alto will be pushed down to the 800 segment, then there will be place for the Maruti Suzuki Cervo. Maruti Cervo will come equipped with an engine capacity of a litre. Considering the trend flowing in the Indian market, 60-65 bhp is a realistic estimate of the power that will be sent to the front wheels.



In The Exterior of Maruti Cervo, Maruti Cervo looks like the Honda Fit. The lines and cuts of the Maruti Cervo car are neat and classy and the clean blacky covering at the end of the windows are cleverly made so as not to see too many holes.The headlights seem too agressive and getting ready to vrroomm and seems confident, well we can hope it really does. The Small mini SUV looks at the back, with an arching roofline, wedgy stance, slanted headlights and stubby bonnet makes out a new shape of itself and bound to be a great car if its priced is good and if its at 1Lakh, it will be crazy selling.The rear is equally attractive as the front end of the Maruti Cervo is. The large lamps add appeal and character to the rear of this Suzuki.



In The Interior of Maruti Cervo car look like Maruti Swift. The rectangular air vents in the center and the circle open closed ones on the sides dont look even and looks a bit uneven. the colors of the controls lights up the dash. The boot is very small, but for daily shopping and office stuffs its just good. Seats at the back can seat only two and the third one can cramp up the place. A lot of storage areas are available to keep stuff in the front and find little at the back. Power Windows are airbags are available in the international markets but we doubt that it will come to India at that cost atleast airbags as an option would be better to make the car safe. In the outside markets Maruti Cervo car is equipped with front semi-bucket seats, 4-speed auto gearbox a K6A DOHC engine with VVT, bluetooth capability.
