SUSAN uses a 20MW class Electrified Aircraft Propulsion system to enable advanced Propulsion Airframe Integration (PAI) in transport category aircraft. Alternative fuels will be used to reduce the amount of emissions per energy used. By combining these features there is the potential to reduce aircraft emissions by 50% per passenger/mile while retaining the size, speed, and range of large regional jets. Problem: Aircraft emissions need to be reduced by at least a factor of two, with a goal of zero emissions. Constraint: Must use existing airport infrastructure, be flight certifiable, and be more cost effective Solution To Be Developed: Hybrid Electric Large Aircraft Specific Concept To Be Developed: SUSAN Electrofan
