Correct , it wont be lifting heavy loads out (I reworded my previous response now to make it more clear)

I think the Shorts will only carry 2.5 to 3.5 tonnes and the company who will be paying the bills wants the ability to bring in 5 tonnes in 1 aircraft

Also their budget won't run to heavy lift helis , so thats out
