FIELD: delivery.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to an improved cargo delivery system by means of aircrafts, preferably unmanned ones, to specially designed home stations. An aircraft has a cargo module made with the possibility to hold cargo and/or passengers in one or more cargo compartments of the cargo module. A home station includes a docking station for docking one or more aircrafts, and, in addition, it is equipped with a receiving station for receiving cargo and/or passengers, which is removed from the docking station for some distance, and, in addition, it includes a means of transportation connecting the docking station and the receiving station. The means of transportation is made with the possibility of moving coupling means of the cargo module and the coupled cargo module disconnected from the coupled aircraft, when the aircraft remains stationary, between the docking station and the receiving station, if the cargo module is disconnected from the aircraft, as well as with the possibility of moving both coupling means of the cargo module and coupling means of the aircraft between the docking and receiving stations, if the cargo module is inseparable from the aircraft. In addition, the invention relates to a cargo delivery method.

EFFECT: cargo delivery system is optimized, the impact of environmental conditions on delivered cargo is eliminated.
