Westland "Goliath"

Westland Aircraft Company's giant helicopter of the future would have a single rotor of 60m diameter powered by tip-mounted turbo-jets. Designed to carry troops, guns, jeeps, and ammunition, it has entry ramps at both ends of the fuselage. Typical load might consist of 450 troops or three 15-ton tanks.
