China's J-50 fighter could fly itself if pilots pass out in combat
Chinese military aircraft researchers are exploring flight-control systems that could keep future fighters flying if pilots become incapacitated. The concept would give aircraft greater autonomy during combat. It could also help them navigate without satellite signals and coordinate with unmanned wingmen. Researchers at the Shenyang Aircraft Design & Research Institute outlined the approach in a recent study. The institute is linked to the devel…
The developers of China’s upcoming J-50 fighter jet have outlined technologies that could fundamentally change the nature of air combat. Key features include the aircraft’s ability to continue flying autonomously if the pilot loses consciousness, as well as the ability to coordinate large groups of drones. These details come from a study conducted by a team at the Shenyang Aircraft Design and Research Institute, the South China Morning Post (SCM…
China is preparing new flight control systems for fighter jets that will allow them to continue flying even if the pilot loses consciousness and is unable to control the craft. The logic behind these systems is that the extreme pressures experienced by pilots of new supersonic fighter jets can […]
The Chinese fighter aims at flight controls that hold without conscious pilot and without satellite. The idea is not new, the capabilities yes. L'articolo The Chinese fighter J-50 flies alone (and without GPS) if the pilot faints is taken from Future Next.
