a future vehicle

　　while many technological advances occur in an evolutionary manner, occasionally a revolutionary technological appears on the horizon that creates startling new conditions and profound changes. such is the case with the privately developed moller skycar, which is named after its inventor. with his permission, i would like to discuss the military potential of this vehicle. the ruggedized moller skycar variant the military is evaluating is called the light aerial multipurpose vehicle, or lamv (pronounced "lam-vee").技术的进步大多以渐进的方式进行，但有时可能出现突破性进展，带来令人吃惊的新情况和深远的变革。私人研制的"莫勒空中汽车"的情况就是如此，这是以其发明家的名字命名的。征得他的同意，笔者愿意探讨-下这种运载工具的军事潜力。美军目前正在进行评估的加固型"莫勒空中客车"，叫做轻型空中多用途运载工具，或缩称lamv(读作"lam-vee")。

　　the lamv is a vertical take-off and landing aircraft that can fly in a quick, quiet, and agile manner. it is a new type of vehicle that combines the speed of an airplane and the vertical take-off capability of a helicopter with some characteristics of a ground vehicle, but without the limitations of any of those existing modes of transportation.lamv是一种垂直起降航空器，能以快速、低噪音、敏捷的方式飞行。这是一种新型的运载工具，它将飞机的速度、直升机的垂直起飞能力与地面运输工具的某些性能结合到一起，但却没有这些现行运输方式的局限性。

　　the lamv is not operated like traditional fixed -- or rotary-wing aircraft. it has only two hand-operator uses to direct the redundant computer control twists to select the desired operating altitude and moves fore and aft to select the rate of climb. the right-hand control twists to select the vehicle`s direction and moves side-to-side to provide transverse (crosswise) movement during the hover and early-transition-to-flight phases of operation; it also moves fore and aft to control speed and braking. simply put, the lamv is user friendly.lamv的操作不同于传统的固定翼飞机或旋翼式飞机。来源：作文地带整理。
