(I apologize for the lack of screenshots, I can currently only play on a weak laptop and it was a struggle just to get the one for the thumbnail. If anyone wants to get a couple of screenshots of this plane I'll be happy to feature them here like I did with its predecessor)

Description

The DAC-30-100F is a cargo variant of the massive civilian transport aircraft. Because the airframe wasn't designed for cargo carrying as its main priority, the only place a cargo door was able to be installed was the side of the fuselage, making it quite unconventional when compared to other heavy lift aircraft.
While this limits the volume of the payloads the aircraft can accept, it does allow it to be loaded from the top using a crane or via the ramp.
Nevertheless, the DAC-30-100F is a great temporary solution while the Conglomerate works on designing a proper strategic air lifter from the ground up.
