| "The VVA-14 was an outstandingly bold concept which very nearly came off. There is little doubt it could have led to a practical verhicle for many oceanic purposes. In the long term all it achieved was to give TANTK-Beriev considerable experience in many new disciplines, especially in challenging avionics and flight-control areas. Such a programme would have almost no chance of being funded today." |
the automotive industry and especially motorcycles produce some very innovative and exotic concept vehicles for exactly this purpose, on a regular basis. soley to explore new disciplines and technologies for homolgation into the much more mundane vehicles offered for sale to the general public. it's not hard to imagine the aviation industry occasionally doing this in order to stay abreast of current military and commercial needs. the aircraft you posted was very cool, it makes me wish there was one i could go look at up close somewhere.
