The V-8 designation was re-used by the U.S. armed forces to refer to the AV-8 Harrier. This was an unrelated project. XV-8 "Fleep" XV-8 'Fleep' flown in the Full Scale Tunnel at Langley, 1962 Role Experimental STOL Aerial Utility Vehicle Manufacturer Ryan Aeronautical Company First flight 1961 Number built 1 The XV-8 Flexible Wing Aerial Utility Vehicle (nicknamed Fleep, short for "Flying Jeep") was an improved version of the Flex-Wing. Both aircraft were built by Ryan Aeronautical Company in collaboration with NASA for the United States Air Force and the United States Army and tested in 1961 as a STOL patrol, reconnaissance and light utility aircraft to transport people or freight when a more specialized aircraft is not required or available. Contents 1 Design and development 2 Specifications 3 See also 4 References 5 External links // Design and development The Fleep began as the Flex-Wing. The Flex-Wing had four-wheel landing gear, a smaller nose section behind which the pilot sat, and a single vertical tail/rudder, whereas the Fleep had tricycle landing gear, a larger nose section and a V tail/rudder. The wing was a fabric delta-shaped Rogallo wing with a fold-able frame; the wing was attached to a pod-like cockpit on a four-wheeled cargo platform. It was tested with two tail configurations — vertical fin and V-tail. The aircraft wing could be folded into a relatively small package for transport.[1][2][3][4][5] Specifications General characteristics Crew: One pilot Length: 10 ft 6 in (5.94 m) Wingspan: 33 ft 5 in (10.18 m) Powerplant: 1 × Continental IO-360-A, 210 hp (157 kW) Performance Maximum speed: 65 mph (105 km/h) Range: 120 miles (193 km) See also Francis Rogallo's airfoil John W.
