The plane uses a "blended wing" design, which could improve fuel efficiency by 50%, JetZero and Siemens representatives said Wednesday (Jan. 8) in a press conference held at CES 2025 in Las Vegas.

Fuel is stored in various tanks within the aircraft to prevent wing bending stresses and control the center of gravity. The fuel is pumped from the tanks to the engine through tank pumps ...

NASA has demonstrated a way to build "hybrid wing” airplanes that dramatically reduce fuel consumption ... BWB — which lowers the weight of the aircraft's structure by 25 percent — could ...
