A hybrid air boost vehicle makes use of the porous panels (1) and suction devices (5) of a vehicle aerodynamic drag reduction system, and makes use of the air consumed by such a system, to provide the energy and air to power a land or water based ground effects vehicle. Energy and air consumed by the suction system, and normally wasted, is recycled by providing an air cushion to partially support the vehicle. The entire hybrid air boost vehicle system is more efficient than either a drag reduction system or a ground effects vehicle alone, and the benefits of both are realized, as well as benefits unique to the hybrid vehicle.

Cette invention concerne un véhicule hybride à assistance pneumatique qui utilise les panneaux poreux et les dispositifs d'aspiration du système de réduction de traînée aérodynamique d'un véhicule et exploite l'air consommé par un tel système pour obtenir l'énergie et l'air nécessaires à l'entraînement d'un véhicule terrestre ou aquatique à effet de sol. L'énergie et l'air utilisés par le système d'aspiration, normalement perdus, sont recyclés sous forme de coussin d'air qui supporte partiellement le véhicule. Pris dans son ensemble, ce système pour véhicule hybride à assistance pneumatique est plus efficace qu'un système de réduction de traînée aérodynamique ou qu'un système à effet de sol seul car il offre, en plus des avantages propres aux deux systèmes, des avantages spécifiques du véhicule hybride.
