AIRSHIPS THAT CAN PICK UP AND DROP OFF CARGO WITHOUT LANDING
June 2023 – (LOS ANGELES) – Aeros, a developer and manufacturer of Aeroscraft, a Zero-Emission Variable Buoyancy Cargo Airships (eVBA), announced today that they have achieved the design freeze maturity milestone for the eVBA cargo holding & management system.
The Aeroscraft is designed to control lift in all stages of air or ground operations and consists of a built-in internal ballast control, enabling vertical takeoff and landing, as well as hover operation at max payload without re-ballasting or ground infrastructure. Aeroscraft is powered by a hydrogen fuel cell and is capable of off-loading stores while hovering.
The Aeroscraft family includes three models of eVBAs, ML806 with a 6-ton carrying capacity, ML866 with a 66-ton carrying capacity, and ML868 with a 250-ton carrying capacity. They have enormous cargo bay (ML866: 264,000 cub ft, ML868: 1,043,100 cub ft) with a multifold unrestructured underneath cargo bay opening, allowing for transportation and installation of large oversize equipment or low-density cargo, including Freight Class 500 at full load and ISO containers. This enables the transport of many types of cargo that were previously not feasible by air, avoiding ports and terminal bottlenecks.
The eVBA Aeroscraft features proprietary cargo holding and management system that automates weight and balance and empowers terrestrial or marine cargo deployment. No ground loading or unloading equipment is required at departure or landing points, enabling efficient cargo pick-up, in-flight sorting, and unloading. The internal sorting system allows cargo to be unloaded at any time.
