I'm not understanding the connection you are making with commercial aircraft.
Do you mean rapid dragon should have been developed to work with our commercial airliner fleet rather than our military transport aircraft?
How would that work? I don't see rear cargo ramps on commercial aircraft (there may be some, but I don't know of them).
- bombcar 2y agoHe's arguing that the military should (when possible) use modified commercial airliners as transport (like the old 747 Cargos) because then they benefit from the economies of commercial scale. Sure, the plane would be customized, but some 50?80? percent of it would be the same as the commercial birds. And the 747 at least could open the front and rear.
