The development of military aircraft technology will soon advance to include a flying machine without any moving control surfaces.
The new X-65 Aurora will not fly with the standard active flow control (AFC) system but instead use jets of air from a pressurised source to shape the flow of air over the aircraft’s surface, with AFC effectors.
By removing external moving parts from the design, an aircraft’s weight and complexity can be reduced, while most importantly making it easier to hide in the air – perfect for military stealth jets which can’t be spotted by radar.
