I'd love to see the tanker version of the 777 that Boeing has supposedly had on its drawing boards for years. Apparently they offered it to the Air Force a while back, but there was no interest in it. The 767 is probably the most versatile airframe since it already fills the tanker and AWACS roles, ...

In spite of the few minor issues noted, I think it's a really good drawing. Any plans on doing a version with the AGS-Lite gun?

Seems like the placement of the aft CIWS so close to the helo deck is just a horrible accident waiting to happen.

Unless your Sea Cat mods have a significant range increase over the real Sea Cats, then the CIWS would basically fill the same role. CIWS are designed to take down missiles, but if it can take down a missile, it can just as easily (if not more easily) take down an aircraft at close range. And the Se...

Yup, looks like an old Greek 50-lepta (that's half a drachma) coin. My dad still has some of those from his Navy days of cruising around the Med.
