An ad hoc working group (AHWG) was convened by the US Army Advanced Materiel Concepts Agency (AMCA) to consider the technical feasibility of developing a very heavy aerial lift vehicle to be operational by 1990. The mission spectrum for such a vehicle was assumed similar to the proposed QMR for the heavy-lift helicopter except for the payload requirement which was increased in these considerations to approximately 50-60 tons. Shaft-driven and tip-driven helicopter concepts were given major consideration. Powerplant and transmission development and problems relating to subsystems, such as load handling and control, were treated. Vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) concepts that were not high disc loading were discussed. Short take-off and landing (STOL) was not considered. (Author)
