Transporter

Modular, Retractable Casualty Evacuation and Cargo Pod Delivery Aircraft

The Transporter's patent-pending technology makes use of a vertical takeoff and landing aircraft design. The vehicle design is highly modular for a wide variety of payloads. Currently, a full-scale prototype has been designed and manufactured in-house and is undergoing rigorous quality checks and comprehensive engine testing.

Missions and Capabilities:
Cargo Pod Delivery, Independently Retractable Landing Skids

For cargo resupply and casualty evacuation missions, the vehicle can receive and drop off pod cargo to any destination, even if that destination is otherwise inaccessible to ground vehicles.

Not only with the extremely small ground footprint, the Transporter can also land cargo pods via a winch in the most inaccessible terrains. Uneven terrain landing is possible due to the independent raising and lowering of the legs on the Transporter.

The Transporter can alternatively provide efficient casualty evacuation allowing swift retrieval as the fuselage can be lowered to the ground using the powered retractable landing skids.

The landing skids can also be replaced with helicopter wheels or pontoons to offer different mission capabilities.

The Transporter is sized to quickly fit inside a V-22 Osprey and can carry up to 1000 pounds of cargo travelling at faster speeds than traditional helicopters.

AT Transporter Mission Capabilities:

Firefighting:   Carries over 1,200 pounds of water and can hover precisely to do water drops

Disaster Relief:  Supplies can be loaded into the pods with AT Transporter landing with the supplies or the winch system can lower the pod to get the supplies to first responders in areas where landing is not possible

Water Rescue:   With floats attached to skids water rescues are made possible

Robot Deploying Air Vehicle:  A robot carrying pod can deploy and retrieve robots for disaster relief etc.

Medical Evacuation Vehicle:  Carries one or more patients on stretchers

Autonomous Cargo:  Allows for low cost high speed and high payload deliveries at 200 mph and up to 1,200 pounds

Crop Dusting:  Can carry well over 1,200 pounds of agricultural sprays per run.   Does quick turn arounds.

Personnel Transport:  The People Pods (personnel-carrying pods) for the existing AT Transporter design will have seats for up to 3 people.  People Pods for the upgraded production AT Transporter will have seats for up to 6 people and act can as an AT Transporter Shuttle Craft.

The 3 passenger AT Transporter is estimated to cost $249,000 – 299,000 and the 6 passenger AT Transporter is estimated to cost $395,000-450,000.  Both vehicles can perform the same missions but with different payloads.  Flights above 20,000 ft are possible with turbocharged engines.  The passenger pods for the AT Transporter will be introduced in early 2018.
