A ship that glides like a pelican

A unique boat has been seen in the sea of ​​America which runs on the water, then rises above the water and starts flying in the air. It is made by the Regent Craft Company and its name is Paladin. This new technology boat is being called a seglider. It looks like an airplane in appearance, but moves like a boat. Its wings are 65 feet tall and have 12 propellers which carry it forward. The company's CEO Billy Thalaheimer says, we wanted to make something that was easier like a ship and faster than the ship. Now this dream is going to come true. "

This ship runs in three ways

Paladin ship runs in three ways. First of all, it runs like a normal motor boat on water, which is called float mode. Then with the help of hydrophoyals, it rises a few feet above the water, it is called foil mode. In the end, when its speed increases further, it starts flying completely in the air, which is called fly mode. The special thing about this ship is that it neither stops in water nor hesitates in the air. Its top speed is 180 mph and in the air it can fly up to a height of about 30 feet. Like a peelican bird, this boat runs fast flying over the water.

Fast by train, comfortable by car

The company says that seglider like Paladin will make the journey between cities very easy in the coming times. For example, it takes about three hours for the train to go from Road Island to New York, but this ship can set the same path in just one hour. Regent company is preparing to start this service in Florida, Hawaii, Japan and Gulf countries. The special thing is that this ship is completely electric, so there is neither smoke nor too much sound. Meaning, this journey is not only fast but also comfortable and clean.

This technique can also be useful in war

Paladin ship can prove to be very beneficial not only for the journey of common people, but also for the army. The Marine Army of America is working on this to be used to send soldiers between the islands. For the army, it will be run with jet fuel instead of battery so that it can cover long distances. Through this, it will also be easy to take intelligence mission, drone or deliver essential items. Paladin blows slightly above water, so that it can avoid radar and sonar. This means that the enemy will be difficult to catch it.

Can make common journey special

Regent company is also associated with big investors, such as Mark Cuban and Peter Thiel, which think that these new technology can make people's journey cheaper, easy and fun. Mark Cuban said, traveling through water is still difficult and expensive. Regent can make it very easy.

Paladin ship can sit in the ship right now, but the company says that as the technology progresses, its capacity and moving distance will increase. The company is planning to start a Paladin service in coastal areas by making cities like Miami its center, so that people can escape from the car or train crowd and reach directly from one place to another.

Paladin's testing has started in summer this year and it is expected that by 2027 it will start running for the common people as well. The international maritime organization considers it a ship, not a plane. That is, there is no need for air license to run it. It will be run in the same way that a ship is run.
