Sikorsky to build hybrid tilt-wing aircraft
Lockheed Martin’s Sikorsky unit will build new hybrid, tilt-wing aircraft, the company announced this week. The hybrid-electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft will feature wings that tilt at different stages of a flight. The Stratford-based helicopter manufacturer said the aircraft is the first in a series of next-generation vehicles that will utilize more electrical motors and have the ability to fly without a pilot.
