When the public in Indonesia still revolves around the content of the hoax, then any news that makes the envy of neighboring countries. Late last February, through lively video recording in social media, Singapore has successfully launched and achieved certification over the flying boat labeled Airfish 8 (reunion part 07). A convergence of technology of aircraft and ships that can carry eight passengers.
There is no label on the military vehicle that looked similar to the stingray, but adoption of the technology WiSE (Wings In Surface Effect) is ideal for maritime patrol and mission needs of infiltration by sea. Fleeting reunion part 07 no seaplane will look, but don't be mistaken, reunion part 07 didn't have the ability of amphibians like the PBY-5A Catalina and Grumman Albatross that once operated by the AIR FORCE. Airfish 8 is the fixed-winged ship is designed to fly low over the water surface.
Airfish 8 designed by utilizing ground effect phenomenon, namely the dynamic cushioning that arise when the spacecraft was flying very low over the surface, thus increasing the ratio of lift and drag the power generating fuel efficiency better than conventional aircraft.
Of the specification, Airfish 8 made Wigetworks Pte Ltd, supported V8 engine with the power of 500 HP. Even though the use of a single machine, but the reunion part 07 brings the two propeller with each containing four blades. This type of fuel is gasoline with Oktane reunion part 07 95 or spesifiksi on it. Under normal conditions, fuel consumption reaches 70 litres per hour. While distance cruising Airfish 8 reach 300 miles (482 km equivalent).
Because it is not a conventional aircraft, Airfish 8 can only float up to a height of 7 meters above sea level. This maximum vehicle speed of 196 km per hour, while the speed jelajahnya 148 km per hour. The structure was built from carbon materials reunion part 07 fibre reinforced and composite sandwich/pastic bag.
Talk about a total weight of up to 1 ton, including for luggage can bring capacity 160 kg. Reunion part 07 configuration consists of two crew and up to eight passengers. From the aspect of dimensions, reunion part 07 got the overall length of 17.2 meters, height of 3.5 metres and a width of 15-meter wingspan. Draught when the plane/boat water maximum 0.55 m. For takeoff, the distance only need 500 reunion part 07 meters, and to land 300 – 500 metres, depending on wave height water.
Aron Flying Ship
In October 2014 similar rides Airfish 8 had been on a trip and offered to Indonesia. Aron Flying South Korea-made Ship carrying out a demonstration flight in Kopaska Paddle Hut Headquarters, Tanjung Priok, Jakarta. By the manufacturing business, Aron is referred to as the first aircraft in the world that can operate in air and in water, even at the cuara bad.
In the strategic perencangan, Ministry of Defense of INDONESIA did not imply to bring vehicle WiSE, but considering its role and its ability, vehicle transport is starting numerous revival as an ideal media for the military mission, not only for special forces, but also on sea patrol duties. In fact, with kebisaannya for armed, WiSE may be fitting for penindakkan, not limited to monitoring and reporting.
Aron Flying Ship
Iran's military operates any WiSE given the appellation Bavar.
The Government via the BPPT (Badan assessment and application of technology) actually takes part has to develop this media. Take the name of Grouse, BPPT ever build the prototype of the WiSE.
Grouse digadang to load eight people and have a height about two meters above the water surface with a maximum speed of 60 knots with a long flight of six hours non stop. Prototype WiSE Grouse SDJ A2B Sunday already undergoing test and roll-out screens fly in Bojonegara, Banten Bay. Originally, the test model through aerodynamics and micro test conducted in Surabaya. Then the making of the prototype was done by Carita in Doha and in shipyards in Bojonegara, Carita Serang, Banten. Grouse only car engine wear-made Chevrolet. The use of a ship tech WiSE this of course saves you cost that must be removed and passenger travel time more quickly.
