The invention relates to the technical field of communication and transportation
engineering, and discloses an overwater ground effect aircraft which comprises an aircraft body, wings, limiting rings and adjusting plates. During
takeoff, extension wings extend out of hydrofoils to increase the contact area, provide extra hydrodynamic force lift force and reduce the
head wave resistance, and hydraulic rods adjust the
underwater depth and included angle of the hydrofoils in real time; the taxiing distance is shortened, and the
takeoff power is reduced; and the hydrofoils are automatically retracted after lift-off, so that aerodynamic resistance is reduced. During landing, the hydrofoil is unfolded, the angle is adjusted and controlled to form a buffering lift force area,
water entry impact is reduced, the flight
control system adjusts the posture of the hydrofoil in real time,
underwater additional torque is provided, posture
controllability is improved, the taxiing distance is shortened,
energy consumption is reduced, and stability is enhanced. When the wing ship mode is switched, pneumatic propulsion is closed, and the driving shaft drives the
underwater driving
paddle to drive the aircraft under low-power operation; and when the direction is adjusted, the direction of the driving
paddle is changed through rotation of the first worm wheel, and the design can quickly switch
modes, greatly reduce
energy consumption and widen the use scene.
