The unmanned military capabilities of a hybrid hovercraft and ground-effect vehicle are currently being investigated by a team of NSWC Dahlgren engineers and scientists in a ground effect research and development program known as Sly Fox Program Mission 9.
“The goal of Sly Fox Program Mission 9 is to integrate, test and evaluate the hybrid 19XRW vehicle’s utility as a military vehicle, including an unmanned capability,” said Dohn Burnett, Sly Fox Program Manager. “This vehicle has great potential to provide very flexible warfighting capability across a broad spectrum of missions. This team of junior engineers and scientists will be exploring the concepts and designs for changing this vehicle from a commercial water craft to a military system.”
