Description Advanced Airship Technologies and Design Approaches identifies and outlines important airship design and practicability considerations and suggests a better design approach that will result in more successful development programs and lead to airships that are in synch with 21st-century aviation practices and advanced military–commercial operating utility needs. This book offers a path forward to introduce an era of more prudent airship design, clear vision, and better management. It is a must-read for all those with an interest in a successful future for airships. Author Philip V. Hunt is a former British Royal Navy air engineer officer. He was the first onsite U.K. program manager in the U.S.-based JAST/JSF/F-35 program. As program manager at DARPA, he managed the Walrus (heavy-lift airship), A160, morphing aircraft, DP-5X, canard rotor wing, heavy fuel engine, and other advanced technology efforts.
