Aircraft program
Non-rigid helium airship with two engines. Original variant 40B, latest version is 40E. In development.
The aircraft as engineered: what it is built from, the systems it flies with, and its configuration — each box a theme.
Technical reference compiled with AI research; a value appears only where two independent research passes and a web fact-check agree. Gaps are deliberate.
