“il primo pilote electrico!”
Bravo!
Would also help a lot with weight and balance. And STO/VL vectored thrust would become a lot more practical because the (small, light) electric motors could be put in the thrust pods, and all that would be required to transmit power would be a cable (probably two).
But I suspect we have a couple of generations of battery technology to go before it is more than a technical tour de force. There is a long way between “possible” and “practical”. Still, it’s a milestone.

The sound may be gone for the first part. Could be just me, though.
This would open up reverse thrust without fear of overheating, too, if the useful load is worht something.
