J.14 Albatross AWACS

Description

The J.14 Albatross is a capable carrier-operable Airborne Warning And Control System (AWACS) inspired loosely by the E-2 Hawkeye. Took me about 2-3 days to get the main work done, then from there it was just tweaks to performance and such. I'd been trying to get a good carrier capable turboprop plane for a while, until I came back to the idea with more skill than the last times I'd tried.
