The benefits for operators include significant extra takeoff-weight uplift capability which translates into up to six metric tons more revenue-generating payload and/or range-increasing fuel in some airports and around 2.6 metric tons on average over the airports most flown by widebody aircraft.

This principle is fundamental in generating lift, thrust, and maneuverability, allowing aircraft to fly. Developments in aircraft design and engine technology have allowed us to fly farther, faster, and carry more payload. Thrust (how it moves forward). That force is called thrust. Thats exactly what engine controls do.

Full-fuel payload is a whopping 1,150 pounds, and max landing weight is 7,600. Taxiing requires forays into Beta as there is so much thrust at idle that the Epic will rapidly accelerate beyond taxi speed. The Epic E1000 AX’s clean design is augmented by the most power ever on a production turboprop single—1,200 hp.

Now, you might be wondering about its payload. The C-5 Galaxy has a unique high-wing design, with four engines capable of delivering an enormous amount of thrust. This aircraft is all about carrying massive payloads. The Stratolaunch can carry a staggering 550,000 pounds and has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,300,000 pounds.

Known as the Flogger, the MiG-23s variable wing sweep makes it capable of taking off from short, remote runways, as well as optimizing its aerodynamic profile for supersonic or cruise flight. Nevertheless, it was an extremely sophisticated jet for the late 60s and remains one of the most iconic Soviet aircraft of the Cold War.

Eventually, though, the 10-ton payload model could be the smallest in the Airlander family. Simultaneously, the firm is developing the even larger Airlander 50—and potentially, an Airlander 200 with a 200-ton payload. The design also boasts a 4,000 nm ferry range, dropping to 2,000 nm at full payload.
