This massive airship is getting a $2.7 million grant to revolutionize transport

The UK's Airlander 10 — the largest aircraft in the world — is continuing to attract investment. The craft's designers, Hybrid Air Vehicles (HAV), have won a €2.5 million ($2.7 million) grant from the EU from a fund to develop green transport initiatives. This sum is on top of a £3.4 million ($5 million) grant awarded by the UK government earlier this year, with HAV also aiming to raise an additional £2 million via equity crowdfunding platform Crowdcube.
