Can aircraft use electric power the same way with a car?

Can aircraft use electric power the same way with a car?

Why green energy is so interesting thing when we are trying to predict the future of aviation?

Why green power interests the people, who are working with the long-enduring systems. The answer is that green energy is safer than nuclear power, and the solar panels are not causing threat even the manned aircraft or drone is dropping from the skies. Also, green power can create in the place, where that drone operates, and that means that the requirement of fuel transportation is decreasing. 

In the world is high-altitude drones, which are using solar panels during normal operations. Those aircraft can use also remote loading systems for their batteries, and that ability gives them very long flight time. And that kind of drone can fly over some area even months. If that drone is created by using stealth material, they are really hard to locate. 

Can electric-powered aircraft be hypersonic? The answer is "yes" but the electric source is problematic. 

Those high-flying dromes can offer communication, surveillance, and other kind of services. They can fly above some area and locate animals and other things, what is moving in the place. They can also fly around some volcano and search the reactions of that mountain, and that data can collect to the database, what is used to create the predictions of the eruptions. 

Even drones would be high-flying they are not probably very big, and if those systems are using radars, high-resolution cameras, and laser microphones, they can search for things, what people are talking in some rooms. The radars can also be used in airborne early warning missions or those drones can also locate underground bunkers. So they are effective systems for intelligence missions. And those drones can point the targets for the smart weapons like guided bombs. 

But can the smaller and more agile systems operate by using the electric motors? Above this text is the new electric-powered "Lilium" aircraft 

There are manned and unmanned propeller aircraft, which are using hybrid technology or electric motors during flight. In the hybrid aircraft is a similar power system, with cars, normally the aircraft will use electric motors but when the batteries are turning low, the internal generator of electric cells, what is creating electricity for those batteries. The plane can also be covered by using a silicone layer, which increases the flight time. 

Electric motors are giving the aircraft very silent sound, and that means that it would not disturb people or animals. And those lightweight cargo platforms can take researchers to some rough road areas and take them back. Those systems are silent and easy to operate if there is electric power in use.

The electric engine is silent

And this is why military forces are interesting in this kind of system. If the small-size VTOL-aircraft would be equipped with small anti-tank missiles like RBS-56 "Bill" and lightweight machine guns they can be used as lightweight attack aircraft. 

But can electric-powered aircraft operate with hypersonic speed? The thing is that the jet engine itself can use even water as the propellant and if in the combustion chamber would be burned electric arc in the place of the combustion chamber. So this kind of system makes possible to create the next-generation jet engine. 

The power source of this kind of electrodynamic jet engine is a mystery, or it cannot execute by using some safe way. The nuclear reactor would be dangerous and the batteries or high-voltage capacitors can give so short term electric arcs that this kind of system is impossible to create by using safe technology. Nuclear power would be very capable, but if the aircraft will drop, the radioactive material would be released in the area, and that is the clear and present danger for national security.
