I've built these three cargo planes because of the dawn of the aircraft carrier. And well ... you know ... these mothers need a lot of everything. Supplies, people, food. And I like STOLs more than VTOLs. Because. All three have docking ports on the belly so you can attach them to the deck or hangar of your favorite carrier! And low part count as a bonus! CBLC1. The lightest of them all, and the lightest to steer. You can literally hit space and it will take-off and fly without any user input until it's tanks are dry. This one will land and take-off from the shortest carriers, with a reasonable cargo load. see 77I- CBLC1 Naval Light STOL on KerbalX.com CBMC1 medium cargo plane. As you can see it can take off from the SPH, obviously I also landed it there. Standard weight with fuel tanks full: 28 tons. Has unfilled tanks for extended range and/or CoM compensation. In the album you see I delivered a 12 tons, steam driven, electrical generator at the Forgotten Island Shipyard & co. see 77I- CBMC1 Naval Medium STOL on KerbalX.com CBHC1 heavy cargo plane. Mass is around 60 tons. If you're proficient with the rear jet engine and the main engine thrust reversers, you can touch down at 25 m/s. The rear jet engine with it's thrust reverser is helpful in a lot of occasions, and gives a lot of freedom. Yes, the radiator panels glow. Tiny bug. Don't worry, harmless. see 77I- CBHC1 Naval Heavy STOL on KerbalX.com Have fun with these! Any comments or suggestions ... yeah, you know me. Go ahead :-)
