Design Options Study. Volume I. Executive Summary.

Abstract

The Advanced Civil/Military Aircraft (ACMA) is envisioned as an advanced-technology cargo aircraft with the potential for fulfilling the needs of both military airlift and commercial air freight in the 1990s and beyond. The ultimate goal of the Design Options Study is the development of fundamental information regarding both the military and commercial cost and effectiveness implications of the most significant transport aircraft functional design features. This volume, the Executive Summary of the Design Options Study Final Report, presents an overview of the requirements of potential users of the ACMA and a brief summary of the results of the study.
