The Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is soliciting ideas for “portable personal air mobility systems.â€
DARPA is looking for one-person powered flight platforms, including jetpacks and powered wingsuits.
The platform could be used for search and rescue and “augmented urban combat.â€
The Pentagon has announced it’s willing to fund a “portable personal air mobility systemâ€â€”including yours, if you have the right idea.
