NASA / Lockheed-California Hydrogen-Powered Aircraft studies

[hesham]

Hi,

Lockheed designed a three deck hydrogen-powered airliner
aircraft project in 1981,projected range was 6.300 miles.

The four engined double-decker looks like a super-sized Il-86

In 1981, Lockheed designed also hydrogen-powered Supersonic airliners: the first for 300 to 400 passengers on 7,400km at Mach 2.7, the 2 others similar for only 250 passegers. The goal was to enter service near 2000 year.

From the same magazine: a hypersonic airliner, with hydrogen ramjets, for cruise at 6,000km/h (Mach 5?) at 36,000m altitude:

From my dear Scott site;


that aircraft was called Lockheed CL-1317 hydrogen fueled jetliner.

The same Lockheed LH2 designs appear in much more detail in a January 1976 report:

• Short Range, LH2 Internal Tank Transport
• Short Range, LH2 External Tank Transport
• Medium Range, LH2 Internal Tank Transport
• Medium Range, LH2 External Tank Transport
• Long Range, LH2 Internal Tank Transport

Hi Stargzer,


here is another model to Lockheed LH2-fuel subsonic transport aircraft.

Hi,


a more pacific report about Lockheed liquid hydrogen powered aircraft;

[hesham]

Hi,


I think,may be those aircraft are the variants of Lockheed CL-1317;

From L+K 24/1977,

the same Project,but they mentioned Boeing and Bell,as google translate maybe involved ?!.

 

[Aubi]

Bell and Boeing are mentioned as working on similar projects, under NASA supervision.

Im an aircraft scale model builder and my topic are the unbuild projects. Where can I get more graphic information about Lockheed's proposal for a passenger plane similar to the A380 but smaller. I attach the image.

 

[Ordovician]

Thanks, now I have a better idea.

Perfect, like an Air Force One.....I don't think so, but awesome data thanks

Great, thanks so much

I believe this come direct of Lockheed Multibodies research aviable on APR (Aerospace Projects Review)
