This model introduced greater carrying capacity and climb capabilities. It can be powered by engines with a range of 150 to 230 hp (112 to 172 kW), with the prototype powered by a 205 hp (153 kW) Aero Sport Power IO-375 powerplant, which gave a cruise speed of 105 mph (169 km/h) and a rate of climb of 1350 fpm (6.9 m/s).
Builder's Old Measurement (BOM, bm, OM, and o.m.) is the method used in England from approximately 1650 to 1849 for calculating the cargo capacity of a ship. It is a volumetric measurement of cubic capacity. It estimated the tonnage of a ship based on length and maximum beam.
Huntair Pathfinder Mark 1 ultralight. Ultralight aviation (called microlight aviation in some countries) is the flying of lightweight, 1- or 2-seat fixed-wing aircraft. Some countries differentiate between weight-shift control and conventional three-axis control aircraft with ailerons, elevator and rudder, calling the former "microlight" and the latter "ultralight".
The class, each ship powered by a single HSD-Sulzer 9RTA84T-D delivering 50,220 brake horsepower (37,450 kW) at 76 rpm, [6] possesses a relatively high service speed (16.5 knots; 30.6 km/h laden, 17.5 knots; 32.4 km/h in ballast), which increases their earning capacity.
Deadweight tonnage is a measure of a vessel's weight carrying capacity, not including the empty weight of the ship. It is distinct from the displacement (weight of water displaced), which includes the ship's own weight, or the volumetric measures of gross tonnage or net tonnage (and the legacy measures gross register tonnage and net register tonnage).
In March 2015, the Army changed the name of the Ultra Light Combat Vehicle to the Ground Mobility Vehicle. A-GMV is intended to be carried internally in a CH-47 Chinook or externally by a UH-60 Black Hawk. In order to be survivable but transportable, the GMV would be lightly armored and use speed, maneuverability, and off-road mobility to avoid ...

The developmental prototype emerged as the HAV 304, a helium-filled airship with twin conjoined hulls having a total internal capacity of 38,000 m 3 (1,300,000 cu ft). [14] With an overall length of 91 metres (299 ft), the airship was longer than any contemporary rivals. [15]
