A basic airliner like airframe that can be configured for the missions of Aerial refueling, Maritime patrol, Strategic Airlift and AEWC
it would probably be similar in size and cost to the Darkreach and it can only spawn in medium aircraft hangers
it would have a larger cargo capacity than a Tarantula but i think that's fair because it would need a runway or large open field to land

i would like something like this, I would also like something smaller,like C-2ish size, so Hyperion could operate a cargo aircraft that can work as an E-2 or as a MPA.
Kawasaki C-2? ya about that size
i do think this aircraft and the tarantula should be able to airdrop small vehicles and supply containers
I more meant this C2 but that ones not bad either
Oh ya
Would be neat to see this also be able to pick up the AWAC role as a comparison to the Medusa, especially if it sacrificed agility/speed/stealth for increased munitions, or specialized EW capabilities, or even large laser weaponry
i actually got to go inside one of those in a air show
i think laser missile intercept should be Madusa thing but a laser defensive countermeasure would be interesting
the YAL-1 airborne laser was one of the first actual airborne DEWs we (the public) know about, and the ability to laser munitions is essential for competitive capability for each faction, so arguably each faction should have access to some kind of long range laser
what if
oh nice idea
