B ponso>red by the U.S, Army, the Voyageur Air Cushion Vehicle in•Dctober successfully completed its first ship -to -shore, military transport trials. I,n a 10 -day project, which also marked the first salt water operations: with the craft, the 40 -gross -toil Voyageur' hauled cargo containers from ship to shore and inland. Developed and built by Bell Aerospace Canada Division of Textron Canada Ltd., Grand Bend, the craft involved in the project was Voyageur 001, which was built in late 1971. and has logged More than 200 operating hours. o A second craft, Voyageur 002, .was purchased by the, Canadian Ministry of Tran- sport and is being operated on Lake Ontario by the Northern Transportation Co, Ltd., Ot- tawa, Ontario. - In U.S. Army!U.S.Navy exer- cises known as OSDOC II (Off- shore Discharge of Container Ships), Voyageur hauled stan- :dard 20 -by 8- by 8- foot con-, tainers and cargo in high speed logistics operations. The exer- cises took place at Fort Story, Virginia, near Norfolk. Proven was the amphibious craft's. capability, to haul coni tairiers at up to 50 knots from ship to shore and to -penetrate inland. Present Army landing' craft and wheeled amphibians 'have an overwater speed of six to eight knots. Voyageur showed these potentials; -- It avoids cargo pile-ups on the beach required by landing craft -to -truck . transportation mode changes, The Voyageur can retain, its cargo from the ship and carry it inland to distribution points. -- The high speed of Voyageur allows wider disper- sion of supply ships, a necessity in the event of`threat of nuclear` attack. 44. Ela:t,•deek,:esofigurati of .= the Voyageur makes it par- ticularly suitable for hauling cargo containers, which are being used in increasing num- bers by the Army as it moder- nizes its logistics systems. Con- tainers have been found td be far more efficient than traditional break -bulk ship- ping, yet many of the Army's fending craft and wheeled am- phibians are unsuited to con- tainer hauling. Voyageur's high speed. reduces the exposure of cargo to hostile action, and offers rapid discharge and tur- naround of container ships. — The low surface contact pressure of 2 to 3 pounds per square inch minimizes vulnerability to mine warfare. 11 N 0 Receiving cargo on the beach, the amphibious Voyageur Air Cushion Vehicle prepares for inland and overwater operations for the U.S. Army.
