In order to solve the existing deficiencies of the unmanned WIG ship, a new type of unmanned WIG ship with the optimized propulsion unit was designed, where the lift-type water-air amphibious double-ducted-fan propulsion unit increased the drainage and navigation speed of the unmanned WIG ship by a large margin, and the load at the junction between the propulsion unit and ship body was reduced to a great extent. Through simulation and theoretical analysis, it is verified that the unmanned WIG ship with the optimized propulsion mode can further accelerate the drainage and navigation speed of the unmanned WIG ship and reduce the load at the junction between the propulsion unit and ship body during the navigation in water, so its operating performance and safety are both strengthened. Therefore, this newly developed unmanned WIG ship can deliver good social and economic benefits.
