The Urban Aeronautics X-Hawk is designed to be a VTOL aerial rescue craft that can reach tall buildings and other places that helos prove useless. It will be able to rescue people from burning buildings straight out of windows, insert police or troops into buildings, and bring supplies as needed to anyone or any agency that needs them urgently. It could also be used as a aerial car and taxi, military craft for spying and rescue, and for medical transport. The X-Hawk Mule is the first test rig and has flown only a few feet so far but is making slow progress. The goal is 155 mph up to 12,000 ft!!! A radical machine, but much better than the fraud Moller Flying Car!
