Flying Cars? AND, Flying Boats?... What the....?

The US has invested a further 3 million dollars into the development of a Flying Humvee. It wants to develop a car with vertical take off capabilities to remove the hassle of walls as well as avoid the hazards of improvised explosive devices (IED's). The company in charge of the creation has already started taking refundable deposits on the cars that are expected to be made withing the first two or three years. Unfortunately this technology will not be for use by civilians despite its possible solution to our traffic jams.

Furthermore continuing the arms race between America and the Middle East Iran has also invested in "Transformer" like technology with its development of the "Bavar 2" a small reconnaissance boat/plane, which it says is able to avoid radar by flying at low altitude. Though there are inherent problems with this technology this is an important stepping stone for the development of this technology for the future of warfare.
