An air transport vehicle of the present invention comprises a tubular body, said body comprising an upper half and a lower half. The upper half is positioned above the lower half and connected thereto. A central bore is formed between the upper half and the lower half. The bore extends longitudinally from the nose end of the vehicle to the tail end of the vehicle. The vehicle also comprises at least one propulsion device, preferably positioned inside the bore. The vehicle further comprises at least one bulkhead. The bulkhead connects the upper half to the lower half, and extending longitudinally inside the bore, thus dividing the bore into parallel subsections. In preferred embodiments, the upper half and the lower half comprise cavities, used among other things, for cargo and passenger transport.
