In this article, we study new trend of how cargo air vehicles (CAV) are becoming general usage in military to carry different materials. They have some benefits when compared against traditional helicopters and airplanes as example they are cheap and versatile. They can be used to transport medical, food and ammunition supplies to military personnel without loss of life and with a very little maintenance capacity. We will present general structure of multicopters and we will show different solutions to unmanned transport that have been developed in different countries for military usage. Lastly we will present a simulation model for CAV, that can be used to estimate how long time it will take to deliver any amount of cargo with any number of CAVs. Usage is very simple all is needed is user to set CAV parameters to our system.
