In its basic configuration, the G-11 is capable of supporting a 5,000 lbs payload and when in a cluster of eight, the assembly is capable of supporting up to 42,000 lbs.

• Capable of supporting up to 42,000 lbs, when in a cluster of eight (8)

• Can be used singly or in clusters of two or more, depending upon air delivery load weight
