Russian engineers currently work on a unique flying , which looks like a flying saucer. The vehicle called ââ¬ÅLokomoscannerââ¬Â will have 250 meters in diameter and 100 meters in height. The giant vehicle will be able to carry up to 1500 tons of various goods.
The vehicle is a combination of an aircraft, a helicopter and an aerostat, since it can move in a straight line, turn around, hover when needed and perform vertical landing. The shape of ââ¬Åflying saucerââ¬Â provides great wind resistance, making ââ¬ÅLokomoscannerââ¬Â indispensable for works in hard-to-reach areas.
Resources of ââ¬ÅLokomoscannerââ¬Â attract many potential customers from both Russian and foreign enterprises.
