Coleopter
For the insect order coleoptera, see beetle.
A coleopter is a type of Vertical Take-Off and Landing aircraft design where the fuselage is surrounded by an annular wing. The aircraft is intended to take off and land on its tail. The term is an anglicisation of the French coléoptère (beetle) after the first actual implementation of this design, the SNECMA Coléoptère of the mid 1950s.
