G’day gents
If I could, I would like to rack your brains for information regarding the Boeing Vertol Model 360 experimental medium-lift tandem rotor cargo helicopter of the 1980’s.
I am putting together an ‘alternative history’ story on a ‘militarised’ Model 360, to supplement the costly and troublesome V-22 Osprey.

Does anyone know how similar the CH-46 and Model 360 were in size?

If I could gents, I’m trying to ascertain the internal cabin/hull dimensions of the Model 360?

The range of the Model 360?

The envisaged lifting capacity of the Model 360 (internal and external)?

Would anyone like to take a guess as to how many fully equipped troops the Model 360 would be able to carry?

Would anyone like to take a guess as to how much more weight a assault transport variant of the Model 360 would gain, over that of the actual demonstrator (please keep in mind that my Model 360M would have a trainable/turreted weapon system fitted (unlike the Osprey!!)

Does anyone have a high-resolution profile drawing of the Model 360?

Regards
Pioneer

A few more pics of the Model 360 (some of which may already have appeared on our forum's pages before — if so, I'm sorry).
