Success on future battlefields will be largely dependent on sustainability from improved logistics supportability. Both the Air Force and Army, in the form of an Advanced Tactical Transport (ATT) and Advanced Cargo Aircraft (ACA), respectively, have emerging requirements for advanced airlift capability to provide this enhanced capability. In addition, the American Helicopter Society(AHS) sponsored a Student Design Competition in 1988 to investigate and design Heavy Lift Helicopter (HLH) concepts. This paper will briefly review these emerging airlift requirements and then present the results of the tow Georgia Tech HLH design concepts proposed in the AHS competition. Keywords: Rotorcraft design, Configuration, Performance, Advance cargo rotorcraft, Design tradeoffs.
