Fuel cell-powered airplane Ion Tiger has set a new record with 23 hours and 17 minutes non-stop flight.

Naval Research Laboratory conducted in October, a flight with the plane but was then not get it to stick in the air a full day, there was 43 minutes.
But in November it tried again, and this time it was flying time 23 hours and 17 minutes. The fuel cell in Ion Tiger has a power of 550 W. The electric motor driving planet, resulting in a very quiet ride. According to NRL is the fuel cell four times as efficient as an internal combustion engine and seven times as effective as the equivalent weight of batteries.
The next step in development is to increase the impact of the fuel cell to 1.5 kW and extend flight time to three days. While the fuel cell will supply electricity to the supplied loads, such as reconnaissance cameras.
