Electro-Turbine Disc Aircraft

Goal

Develop a disc-shaped aircraft that uses an electro-turbine motor for propulsion.

Problem

Provide a novel aircraft configuration and propulsion method that could achieve high-speed flight with compact power sources.

Concept Summary

The patent describes a disc-shaped aircraft that integrates an electro-turbine motor into the airframe to generate thrust, intended for high-speed flight during the WWII era.

Principles
