Carrier version of my DUW-2F. High alpha flight below 400mph. Supermaneuvreability during stalled flight. Incredible turn rate at speeds above 450mph. This aircraft features thrust vectoring and VTOL. Capable of a hover and short takeoff. Operates from the USS Tiny. Perfect addition to a naval fleet. This is very stable but as with all VTOLs treat with a smooth touch. VTOL engine is to only be operated in the centred vertical position. The main engines provide horizontal thrust after a forward hover has been established. Shut off VTOL engines once speed exceeds 150mph. AG1 nosewheel steering, AG2 VTOL motor, AG3 Airbrakes, AG4 Main engines, AG8 RCS Thrust Vectoring.

I'll take that onboard. As you said I've also noticed a lot of amazing designers who get little recognition who then lose motivation to design. @ccooper
Very kind of you to say that. Thank you!
