What is a land aircraft carrier?
The vehicle, called the Land Aircraft Carrier (LAC), combines the rugged appeal of an electric six-wheel off-roader with the capabilities of a two-seat eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) aircraft.
The essence of the LAC is a van-like six-wheeled vehicle that can travel on the most difficult terrain. A long-range electric 6WD system enhanced by six drive wheels and rear-wheel steering provides excellent maneuverability. Equipped with an intelligent cockpit with 4 to 5 seats.
