This report formally documents the efforts and results of the cargo handling system segment of the Heavy Lift Helicopter (HLH) Advanced Technology Component (ATC) development program. The HLH Cargo Handling system tested and evaluated herein consists of: tandem pneumatically driven hoists which provide high speed inflight stability for externally slung cargo, with pitch attitude control and a long reach cargo acquisition and delivery capability; a visual augmentation system to assist the load controlling crewman in acquiring cargo under conditions of darkness and visual obscuration, and a static electricity discharge system to protect ground cargo handlers from shock hazards. This volume contains descriptions and results of: design support and development tests, which assisted in finalizing and substantiating the designs for the cargo handling components; the integrated test rig program, which demonstrated feasibility and achievement of design, functional, performance and reliability characteristics; and the disassembly and teardown inspection of selected components utilized on the integrated test rig.
