The XV-24A LightningStrike, developed by Aurora Flight Sciences and its partners Rolls-Royce and Honeywell, was a project for a tilt-wing UAV powered by an electric-distributed propulsion system. It was to feature VTOL capabilities and would have had 24 variable-pitch ducted fans driven by electric motors, providing thrust for both hover and
cruise.
