Interesting that they are quoting a payload of near 15 tonnes. The cabin isn't really large enough to accommodate anything that hefty.

They could lift CVRT type armour externally, but with one hook any really useful items approaching that weight, such as laden ISO containers would be fairly unstable requiring low transit speeds.
