Patagonia VTOL Cargo Plane

[Fellow314]

For lifting up to 18t and delivering it places.

 

Comes with 18t of boilerplate cargo and range extending droptanks.

Full of cargo and with the droptanks on it doesn't quite VTO and needs just a little air under the wings to take off.

I'd love to tell you that the excellent stability is due to excellent design but there's around a dozen SAS units and, airbrakes are active and the engine gimballing helps.  On top of that there's rocket powered RCS units for the hairy moments.
