Conceptual Design Amphibious AI Rescue Aircraft Series (GLARE Trimaran Hull & Battery Electric Prop)

Is this design completely autonomous or remote control from a distance, by a remote operator using AI assist?

Hi, it appears to me that the surface area of the wings is small, and it will have to travel at high speeds to stay airborne. Landing near an incident with survivors at high speed could put them in further danger. Could it gain enough speed off of a poor sea state to become airborne, with say 300kg of desperate survivors on board, allowed or not. Stowaways.

"In both documents—'The Table of Prototypes and Models', as well as in 'The Short Explanatory Note', published on the topic, everything you want to understand is explained! Respectfully: Rabah"

Do not worry about the surface area of the wings—the theoretical area of the trapezoidal wings and their total wingspan are specified in the documents on the topic. But besides the theoretical, there is also an actual area, because the trapezoidal wings are integrated into the ceiling of the fuselage as a common structure, resulting in sufficient lift, which is the basis for calculating all types of speeds indicated in the Table. Where does your concern come from that the aircraft will land at high speed on the water surface? There is no such scenario! On the contrary—first, the location of the victims must be localized, then the floats move completely away from the body of the fuselage to perform a landing as a trimaran floating structure. At the same time, the AI must ensure that the aircraft achieves a static trim by the stern, so that the movable nose of the fuselage can be opened without water entering the hull when loading and unloading operations begin.
No overloading of the amphibious aircraft is allowed! Since a medical professional will arrive along with the aircraft, they take the responsibility of deciding which of the most severely injured to take on board.
