Seeing the top view, I think that the joint of the vertical & horizontal stabilizers it´s a little bit narrow fwd, considering the massive variable incidence tailplane. Maybe I would go for a fatter and stronger movable bullet fairing just like the Il-62 or VC10… See the VC10s screwjack system here:...

Also there are the 2 SESAMAR oceanics tugs moored at Tarragona. I also think of BAM of a sort "White elephant" or as future conversion to corvette. I think that first period problem will, also I thought on Serviola's, but I didn't find a suitable blueprint kind drawing to work with. I have worked a...

Hi, If it´s a purpose built freighter, I would remove some unnessary doors. IMO, just keeping the front door and one overwing exit per side it´s enough...

Hi, Nice AU! But regarding aircrafts I see some issues… _ I don´t see any cargo doors on CAV airliners… :? _ Concerning supersonic fighters, IMHO if they are intended to reach Mach 2+, except the CA-14 with its 2D ramp, they need some inlet cone or ramp system to counter shock waves...

But if they intend to be part of NATO/EU they are effectively part of a large (HUGE) navy, what threat are they likely to face ? IMO, Policing EEZ (very low level CG/SAR stuff cheap/small local patrol boats) + one bigger ship as a token helping out NATO (So NATO comes and helps if anything big happ...

Bon dia! I read a bit of the ANC document, but I give up after reading "The Atlantic & Indian Oceans..." They forgot the SSBN “Monturiol”!! :shock: Personally, I doubt that the Catalan Navy will NEED something bigger than a pair of 1000 tons OPVs at best, and 6-8 Fast Patrol Crafts around 300-500 to...
