Introduction Aircraft manufacturers around the world have designed and built aircraft stating that they are multi-role capable. Very few have in fact achieved this e.g. the De Havilland Caribou, the Lockheed C130 and the Chinook helicopter. However, none can encompass the capability of AeroCat. AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Multi-role Capable Using state of the art technology AeroCat is designed for minimal support and can operate in remote areas for extended periods. With endurance exceeding 36 hours, payloads up to 25-tons and an airspeed of 70 knots; AeroCat is truly a multi-mission capable aircraft. AeroVehicles Inc. 2002

Passenger Transport AeroCat has the capability to operate from commercial airports or remote locations. Even in a total economy configuration passenger comfort and outside visibility is incomparable. AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Tour EconomicsOne (1) AeroCat AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Humanitarian Aid • Average over 20,000 kg of payload • Deliver payload directly to one or more villages • Carry a transport vehicle to move supplies or bring patients to a medical AeroCat if the landing area is not next to or in the village (23 standard pallets or 46 stacked) (12 standard pallets or 24 stacked plus 8 additional pallets on the truck) AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Mobile Hospital • Complete medical and dental facilities flown directly where needed. • The medical AeroCat can stay in place as long as required while a Humanitarian Aid/Supply AeroCat replenishes food, clothing and other supplies as necessary. • AeroCat’s long endurance brings quality aid and supplies in large quantities to remote areas not easily accessible by other modes. Three examination rooms (or two and extra storage) Quarters for flight crew Plus six person medical team Reception, Latrine and Waiting Area Medical Supply Storage (Can be expanded) Full Latrine With shower Full Galley AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Firefighting • Low altitude and airspeed enables highly accurate retardant dispersal • Able to deliver over 13,000 liters of fire retardant • Containment in hours instead of days greatly reducing loss of life and property AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Firefighting Economics AeroCat is possibly the most cost effective fire fighting aircraft to ever be developed Forest Fire Modeling Analysis provided by Fire Tech Management Ltd., Canada AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Border Patrol • Endurance; Up to two days on station • Crew Rest Accommodations On-Board • Platform Stability Improves Sensor Performance • Capable of inserting interdiction personnel AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Search and Rescue • Capable of deploying air sea rescue personnel • Medical facilities onboard • Rescue operations in conditions up to Sea State 5 AeroVehicles Inc. 2002
Summary AeroCat is in every sense a multi-role, multi-function aircraft with the ability to be rapidly reconfigured to meet the demands of a modern changing world Facts, Not Suppositions • Alliances • Multi-use Aircraft • Proven Technology • Market Confirmed Future Products • Second and third generation products will scale up the capabilities of the AeroCat aircraft to grand proportions: from a 40-50 ton payload to a notional 250-500 ton payload aircraft, capable of transporting time-sensitive cargo trans-oceanic.
