In this photograph, the Fokker-Republic entry for the VTOL NBMR 3 competition takes center stage. The NBMR 3, or Next-Generation Business, Military, and Civil Transport aircraft competition, was a global effort to design and build a versatile, short takeoff and vertical landing (VTOL) aircraft that could meet the diverse needs of various military and civilian organizations. The Fokker-Republic team's entry, named D24, was a formidable contender in the competition. Powered by the BS100 engine, this aeroplane boasted impressive capabilities, including a maximum takeoff weight of 24,000 kg and a range of over 3,000 km. The BS100 engine, a reliable and efficient Rolls-Royce turboshaft engine, provided the necessary lift and thrust for the D24 to achieve its VTOL objectives. The sleek and modern design of the D24 Alliance showcases Fokker-Republic's innovative engineering and design expertise. The aircraft's aerodynamic shape, coupled with its advanced avionics and control systems, enabled it to transition seamlessly between vertical and horizontal flight modes. This versatility made it an ideal choice for various missions, including troop transport, cargo delivery, and search and rescue operations. In this image, the D24 Alliance sits proudly on the tarmac, its BS100 engine emitting a steady plume of smoke as it undergoes rigorous testing. The team's determination and dedication to excellence are evident in the meticulous attention to detail and the unwavering focus on achieving optimal performance. The Fokker-Republic entry for the VTOL NBMR 3 competition, with its powerful BS100 engine at its core, represented a significant step forward in the development of next-generation transport aircraft.
