VTOL is developed in the form of combining benefits of both multicopter and fixed wing aircraft. Multicopter can do vertical takeoff and landing but its rotary wing rotor can’t pass the velocity of sound However, aircraft can go faster but it needs air- strip for strong lift. VTOL, which is possible to high speed vertical takeoff and landing is developed by many countries for the purpose of the defense industry.
