The Shango is an aircraft concept envisioned to ferry 40-foot-long intermodal containers across Africa, the Mediterranean, and other seas where trade routes are interrupted. It would be capable of vertical take-off to access most regions of this vast continent, and would be used to deliver medical supplies and other goods rapidly

The Shango could be used to deploy medical or emergency food supplies in Africa or to ship goods to remote villages where there is no airport, especially if there has been a disaster like an earthquake, volcanic eruption, or severe drought.
