MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617089750 A) filed by Sankrithi, Mithra on July 23, 2026, for Partially Aerostatically Supported Ram Air Cushion Ship.

Inventor includes Sankrithi, Mithra.

The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.

Abstract: The invention provides a new class of transportation with a partially aerostatically supported ram air cushion ship (PASRACS) that can provide safe, fast, efficient global transport services with extraordinary comfort, luxury and amenities. The PASRACS employs inventive synergistic combinations of lift from aerostatic, aerodynamic, hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces for different modes of operation ranging from a stationary floating configuration on a water surface, to flight in ground effect at high speed. A propulsion system can utilize hydrogen as an energy source driving fluid-dynamic thrusters, to enable zero carbon emissions operations. A transition method is provided for a PASRACS to transition from a floating mode to a takeoff mode to a flight in ground-effect mode in an inventive optimized manner. A transport method for multimodally transporting payload is provided with PASRACS vehicles and systems, with quick turn time operations enabled by the use of payload transfer transport modules and transfer vehicles.
