Core Viewpoint - The article highlights the participation of the Peak Flying Aviation's 2-ton eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing aircraft) model, the Kerry O Firefighting version, in a national emergency rescue drill, marking a significant advancement in emergency response capabilities in extreme disaster scenarios [1][3]. Group 1: Event Overview - The "Emergency Mission 2025" drill was organized by the National Disaster Reduction and Relief Committee and the State Council's Work Safety Committee, with participation from various governmental departments and local authorities [5][6]. - The drill aimed to enhance emergency rescue capabilities and was open to public submissions of new equipment, materials, technologies, and tactics, receiving 1,456 applications [5]. Group 2: Performance of Kerry O Firefighting Model - The Kerry O Firefighting model successfully demonstrated its capabilities by flying 22 kilometers in just 8 minutes to deliver firefighting supplies during a forest fire drill [3]. - The model showcased its ability to conduct dynamic exercises, including the aerial delivery of water and food supplies [3]. Group 3: Technical Specifications and Advantages - The Kerry O model is the first ton-class eVTOL to receive type certification (TC) and production license (PC) from the Civil Aviation Administration of China, with all core modules developed domestically [7]. - It features a maximum payload of 400 kilograms, a range of 200 kilometers, and a speed of 180-200 kilometers per hour, allowing for rapid deployment and operations beyond visual line of sight [7]. - The aircraft can operate day and night, breaking the limitations of visual range and expanding its application scenarios [7]. Group 4: Broader Implications - The successful demonstration of the Kerry O model in emergency scenarios paves the way for the integration of new rescue capabilities with emergency response teams, establishing a solid foundation for the promotion and application of eVTOLs in firefighting [3][6].
