Airship design consisted of a Phillips-farm basis and the four gas ballonet. The same capacity envisaged in the draft transport airship British company “Cargo eyrship Ltd”. a variant of its boot was transporting 40 containers. At the design speed of 160 km / h airship could fly to Australia for four days to Canada – for two, and to Germany in just 6 hours. We made a review allows the effective use of thumbnail sketch airship for commercial freight traffic. However, we consciously put aside which have become quite the usual scope of airships – passenger transportation and tourism, performing research and Earth observation in applications, military, police and other special application. The first possible area of application – CTG project transportation, especially over long distances from their place of factory-built or the first installation. The most promising will be a zeppelin remote regions with low transport accessibility.

This is not only a high cost airship. But also that excluded intermediate handling, such as from a ship on a river, and engineering capacity is expensive and bridges. In addition, on-site delivery of an airship capable of performing and installation work. As the carriage CTG are not regular, the organization of a large cargo airships are available upon tramp scheme, including on international routes. For such loading does not require high speed, but need transportation for long distances. The airship is right for them far better than any other vehicle.

The second possible uses of cargo airship – its inclusion as part of a complex system of organizing transportation for the optimization of the latter. When working in part of an integrated transport system can be cost-effective to use even the average size of the airship with a capacity of 20-30 tons capacity, so to speak, shunting means. One of the problems in the organization of transport, which You can at least partially resolved with the use of airships – the return of empty containers, if they do not return loading. For example, the delivery of high-tech goods in containers in areas with production mainly commodities – ores, timber, fertilizer and so on. Use the airship is not so costly as to drive the “air” car or train. Especially do not need to take extra ballast. Rather, cargo airship XXI century. will not have the classic cigar-shaped “Zeppelin.” The most promising may be the hybrid forms – compound helicopter rotor and aerodynamic maintenance of aircraft helium baloney. Including vehicles quite unconventional form – discoid or toroidal. In October 2005 the U.S. Congress approved a program to build airships project WALRUS HULA (Hybrid Ultra Large Aircraft). His goal – ensuring cargo for the U.S. armed forces. True, most recently, Americans of this project seems to be abandoned. Although the financial capabilities of the Russian developers and builders are not comparable with the U.S., the We have already created an airship DPD-5000. Its length is about 127 meters and it can carry payloads of over 15 tons.
