A conceptual rescue aircraft designed for the year 2030, the Sikorsky 'KANI' aircraft is capable of providing ample space for two people to be accommodated.
The aircraft vehicle is intended to provide low-altitude search and rescue operations in a compact design that's entirely electric and thus eco-friendly. Being that search and rescue missions in the wilderness are often done on foot, the Sikorsky 'KANI' could provide a more flexible and cost-effective solution for park rangers.
The Sikorsky 'KANI' rescue aircraft is capable of being quite agile in the air, but is also small enough to be transported around and stored when necessary. The lower cost of the aircraft would enable parks to keep their own unit rather than have to outsource operations or hire pilots.
Futuristic Rescue Aircrafts
The Sikorsky 'KANI' Light Electric Aircraft Features Space for Two
Trend Themes
1. Compact Electric Rescue Aircrafts - Designing more compact and eco-friendly aircrafts that are bring a disruptive innovation in the search and rescue industry.
2. Low-altitude Airborne Search and Rescue Operations - Developing lightweight aircrafts for flexible and cost effective operations in search and rescue missions
3. Reusable Airborne Rescue Vehicles - Designing aircrafts that can be easily transportable and stored when necessary for effective search and rescue missions
Industry Implications
1. Aviation - The aviation industry can benefit from designing and manufacturing more eco-friendly and cost-effective rescue aircrafts.
2. Parks and Recreation - The parks and recreation industry can save on outsourcing and hiring pilots by keeping compact and cost effective aircraft to perform search and rescue missions
3. Emergency Services - Emergency service providers can use these vehicles to perform faster and more cost effective search and rescue missions
