The Terran Viking is a mech that can operate on the ground and switch to an air-superiority fighter whenever needed. Obviously this is from a game, but I'm curious if that type of technology is possible in the real world.
Can it?

	1 ReplyTo get into the air would require a lot of thrust. Being a ground mech it's gonna need to take some punishment, so heavy armor would weigh it down. Then while in the air to transform into a plane would need some balance, can't have it falling over in mid transformation because of moving parts. Maybe, but not anytime soon.
