ADVANCEMENTS IN TAILLESS AIRCRAFT TECHNOLOGY: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS AND PROPOSAL FOR COMMERCIAL IMPLEMENTATION

George Mathew

ABSTRACT

The military has a problem in developing the most sophisticated flying wings due to the relevance of tailless aircraft in military applications and the ongoing advancements in the aviation sector. This study paper delves into the extensive history of tailless aircraft, covering everything from their inception to the most cutting-edge designs available today. To develop in control systems, especially fly-by-wire technology, tailless designs are now more practical for commercial use since they are more stable and easier to handle than they were in the past. The main goals of this research are to assess the current literature on important parts of tailless aircraft technology and provide a thorough plan for their commercial deployment.The improved splitter increases the velocity by 40 m/s, although the obtained maximum velocity distribution across the aircraft was 29.3 m/s at the rear end. As a result, the aircraft is designed with higher lift and reduced drag, allowing for smoother flight in a variety of applications.Around 53% of the lift force generated is enhanced by redesigned designs. Based on the results of the study, the aircraft with the improved design had a higher lift force and reduced drag by dividing the airflow.
