(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 11, 2007 ) Los Angeles, California -- The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has awarded funding to Aeros Aeronautical Systems Corp. for the Control of Static Heaviness (COSH) light Demonstration program.The focus of the DARPA’s COSH program is the development and demonstration of the technology that will enable to generate and control the lift during all stages of flight without taking on-board any types of ballast. The demonstration flight will prove the systems performance goals: the ‘non-ballast’ flight will reveal that the COSH system can adjust the static heaviness.“We are excited to move ahead with the COSH program and achieve program’s goals. In the past we have accomplished and proved the principles of the highly efficient buoyancy management solution; now we are going to demonstrate it in flight” said Igor Pasternak, Aeros President and CEO.Under the program, Aeros will carry out the conceptual design, technology development, hardware development and bench demonstration, finalizing with the flight demonstration of the system on the FAA type certified Aeros 40D airship.COSH technology has the potential to open new possibilities and further advance all kinds of lighter-than-air air vehicles including, high altitude and stratospheric airships, aerostats, conventional airships and new very heavy life buoyancy assisted air vehicles in support of Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and other agency needs. About Aeros: Aeros is the world's leading lighter-than-air, FAA-certified aircraft manufacturing company. The company's operations involve the research, development, production, operation and marketing of a complete family of Aeros-branded air vehicles used in government and commercial applications. These include non-rigid FAA Type Certified Aeros 40D Sky Dragon Airships, Advanced Tethered Aerostatic Systems and New Type Rigid Air Vehicle - Aeroscraft.
