5 future aircrafts that are soon going to be reality

Futuristic Aircrafts

Every year a whopping gigantic array of new technologies make previous ones outmoded. These fast changing tech scene is increasingly turning any futuristic concept into lived reality just within a short span of time. So is the case in aviation and aircrafts as well. There are widespread technological developments and researches going on in every field of aeronautics and aircrafts that soon going to produce some really stunning flying objects. These futuristic aircrafts apart from adding more value to our flight experience and use of aircrafts will actually help reinventing our relation with airspace in more ways than one. Let us introduce top 5 futuristic flying machines that are soon going to be reality.

Airbus Transparent Plane


This is one of the futuristic aircrafts which is destined to complete by 2050 offer nothing new as far as the flight technology and speed is concerned but is particularly hyped for the groundbreaking in-flight experience for the passengers. The entire plane is supposed to be built with transparent body material offering views of air space to the passengers while flying. The seats are auto-adjustable to passenger’s body shape and they also absorb body heat from the passengers which is converted into power for running the plane.

Icon A5, Amphibious Plane







This one is really a stunning example of the futuristic trend of making planes a regular transport vehicle like SUV. Yes, the cockpit of this amphibious plane just looks the same as the front cabin of any modern SUV. The plane is amphibious which means it can land on the water surface and it has folding wings. The plane with a capacity of just 2 passengers is a fusion of modern amphibious plane and a little of helicopter minus the propeller. The highly priced aircraft though seems to be a toy for the wealthy in the time to come it is sure to become a more mass affordable air transport.

Dapra/Boeing DiscRotor




This innovative aircraft being developed jointly by DARPA and Boeing is full of stunning features and design elements. The aircraft while taking off will be propelled by a rotating blade as like a helicopter but while on the air the same rotating blade will turn into a huge disk on top of the plane and two jet engines at sides will propel the plane forward. The rotating blades turned into blades while flying will actually serve the purpose of wings for the aircraft. The design will allow the plane to take off vertically like helicopter but travel at the speed of a high-speed jetliner.

Green Airways Flying Saucer



We have all read or watched flying saucers in science fiction fantasies but could hardly think it as a reality to be materialized within our own lifetime. Thanks to these futuristic aircrafts which make the fantastic flying to be a reality soon. The researchers in the Deft University of Technology conceptualized the model which is supposed to be more eco-friendly than any other planes in use. It will have at least 50% low emission rate than other commercial planes in use.

X-51A Waverider with Mach 6 Speed




Finally, more than revolutionary designs, comfort, experience and looks what matters in an aircraft is how fast it travels. Developed by Boeing this plane is going to break all the speed records so far. As the Mach 3 level indicates, it can fly at a speed which is 6 times greater than the speed of sound. The plane is named as Waverider because it runs on the shockwaves created by the plane itself.

Aircraft and space travel are increasingly coming close with the evolving technology and innovative maneuvers for flying high and flying distance. In the time to come, it will be the era of futuristic aircrafts and the modern aircrafts and spacecrafts are going to revolutionize flying experience and air transport in every possible way.
