Electric propulsion moves to testing, Aviation Week & Space Technology, 19 February 2018, p 1
In US, within their Advanced Air Vehicles Program (AAVP), NASA is seeking to develop a 5-10 MW hybrid turbine-electric commercial aircraft incorporating superconducting motors. Two underwing turbofans also generate electric power to drive a propulsive fan in the tail that not only adds to the total thrust but reduces drag by ingesting the fuselage boundary layer and re-energizing the wake.
