This seems to work.. 

When I see a system like this I always wonder about an engine failure and what happens then. 

Evidently when everything is working this is a 400+ MPH vertical take off and carry stuff to include arms and people bird. 

DARPA’s new X-76 could completely change how the U.S. military fights. This high-speed VTOL aircraft combines helicopter takeoff with jet-powered flight, eliminating the need for vulnerable runways. Built under SOCOM’s SPRINT program, it’s designed for rapid troop insertion, strike missions, and distributed operations in contested environments like the Pacific. But can this experimental platform succeed where past attempts failed? Let’s break down the tech, strategy, and what it means for future warfare.”
