The air Force is interested be cause it footed the  Mil lion for the Radical x21, designed to show How planes can Fly 50 per cent farther on a Given amount of fuel. The Navy has a secret interest How to apply the same principle to their Range and perhaps their Speed. The Navy has t said it has a interest in the x21, but informed sources said experiments Are underway with this method of reducing the turbulence that build up around bodies moving in either air or  drags at moving objects. The faster the object moves the More turbulence it generates. To overcome it the object must expend an increasingly greater amount of Energy in the form of fuel.
