The innovations allow for more efficient performance and a larger cargo capacity, all with more energy efficiency relative to conventional aircraft. The Bullet 580 is 235 feet long and can carry a payload of up  to 1,000 pounds.<\/p>\n<p>Designed to carry communications, surveying, monitoring and and navigation equipment for civilian and military uses (including weapons platforms), the Bullet cruises at up to 35 knots and can  reach a top  speed of 70 knots. More than a dozen prototypes have been tested and the first full scale Bullet is due to be inflated next month, with test flights slated to begin in the summer.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/gas2.org\/2010\/04\/14\/worlds-largest-airship-lifts-the-standard-for-efficient-blimps\/#more-6820\" class=\"more-link\">(more&#8230;)<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?a=hJCp7Z8fYMw:5qGJQUUb_5o:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?a=hJCp7Z8fYMw:5qGJQUUb_5o:gIN9vFwOqvQ\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?i=hJCp7Z8fYMw:5qGJQUUb_5o:gIN9vFwOqvQ\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?a=hJCp7Z8fYMw:5qGJQUUb_5o:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?i=hJCp7Z8fYMw:5qGJQUUb_5o:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?a=hJCp7Z8fYMw:5qGJQUUb_5o:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?i=hJCp7Z8fYMw:5qGJQUUb_5o:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?a=hJCp7Z8fYMw:5qGJQUUb_5o:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/gas2\/org?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/gas2\/org\/~4\/hJCp7Z8fYMw\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new airship from E-Green Technologies\/21st Century Airships sports the crackerjack name Bullet 580 along with a &#8220;radically different&#8221; design according to E-Green Chairman and CEO Michael Lawson.
