Varialift ARH 250: The larger brother of the ARH 50, the new air transport generation Varialift 2012-02-13 | Full Aluminium body, helium filled and fast, the ARH 250 will soon carry 250 metric tonnes payload in its 250x100x20 m double-decker cargo Hold (500,000 m3). No ground crew, Lifts off vertically and uses 90% LESS fuel than an aircraft. The ARH 250 shown is adapted to transport cumbersome shaped, heavy objects of up to 250 metric Tonnes. The ARH 250 is the new rapid deployment air cargo roll-on roll-off solution to unlock remote areas. Once landed, it becomes heavier than air and sits tight, safe as any large aircraft hangar.
Varialift ARH 250 in action over Canada. Varialift 2012-02-13 | The ARH 250, here flying ath IAS (Indicated airspeed) of 200 Knots (370 Km/hr). Built like an aeroplane with a full metal body of aluminium, the Varialifts punch a hole in tha air, using thrust only to push the load forward, so wasting NO energy in creating lift like an aeroplane or motorized wing shaped objects. Safe, silent, green, economical. The Varialifts could at a stroke provide supplies all the year round to remote Canadian villages and mines.
Varialift ARH 50: the new air transport generation Varialift 2012-02-13 | Built like an aeroplane with its full Aluminium body, helium filled and fast, the ARH50 can carry 50 metric tonnes payload in its 100x50x10 m cargo Hold, (totalling 50,000m3 volume). No ground crew, Lifts off vertically and uses 90% LESS fuel than aircraft. Its unique and patented buoyancy control has rendered at last the Varialift or buoyant aircraft the industrial air cargo solution soon to carry even light density goods like cabbages to the Poles!
