Bell ha testé rivelato il suo V-247 "Vigilant', uno UAS tiltrotor, che sta offrendo al Corpo dei Marines .....
Bell Helicopter unveiled a new unmanned tiltrotor aircraft - the V-247 Vigilant - it is proposing for the U.S. Marine Corps.
The manufacturer displayed a one-eighth-scale model of the aircraft with a working swiveling wing at a briefing September 22 in Washington, D.C.
Bell has designed the Vigilant to meet a need expressed in the 2016 Marine Aviation Plan for a large, “sea-baseable” unmanned aircraft system (UAS) capable of performing multiple missions.
It would be a Group 5 UAS - weighing 16,000 pounds empty, with the ability to carry 13,000 pounds in fuel, weapons such as the MK-50 torpedo, Hellfire or JAGM missiles, and sensors including sonobuoys and LiDAR or radar modules.
Advertised mission range is 450 nm, with time on station of 11 hours.
