"Rador xd" -ErvenDynamics
I took a small break and thought of new designs, this one stood out so i began to build it. It flies great and handles smoothly.

Simple flight controls
VTOL:Flaps
TRIM:Level plane

Story:
In the late 1970s, the Royal Phanpian Navy (RPN) needed a new maritime patrol plane. Development began in 1977, many designs were made. In 1979 the last three were chosen, however only one could be successful. And the famed "L-507" was voted.
A flying model was made on May 7, 1980. The plane would go on very long tests. Development ended up in success. The RPN has a new patrol plane. It didn't enter service until 1985, mainly stationed at coastal areas. The RP-87 is still in service today and won't see retirement until 2030.
Thanks for stopping by to see my plane! Have fun and happy flying!

    @RAF1 that was supposed to be for an AWACS operating part, i left it there so i could make an AWACS without redesigning the fuselage

    @Oski well a light AWACS plane, and you are going to need self defence when ships are there right?

    @phanps I don't like the bombs, I would just replace them with torpedoes.
