Abstract

In this paper, through the research of military aerotransport usage, it especially analyzes the key influencing factors of transport capability. They are range ability and load, sortie generation rate, operational availability, and mission reliability. The paper, respectively, presents the calculation model of transport capacity for single voyage and multiple voyages. Besides, through two examples of relief material delivery by IL-76 and C-17, the transport capacity calculation model is verified. And, it analyzes the main causes of transport capacity gap between IL-76 and C-17. This research provides the theoretical foundation to transport capacity evaluation in flight test phase and the further study of operational effectiveness evaluation.
