QC-8.0 "Palan"
The Palan is designed for long range spying operations. Fitted with twelve guardian missiles, it could also be used to eliminate unarmed aircraft.
eg: VC-25. Ramming may be needed.
*Insert random airliner here*

Have fun outrunning most aircraft with the an-22 ripoff!
Changes from the can'tberra.
Improved nose gear
The giant dish on top
Random notes:
Its quite conspicuous given the giant dish on top.
For a propeller powered aircraft, its quite overpowered.
In theory, there is enough space on board for a small television studio on board. Imagine a fleet of this flying over allied nations and broadcasting propaganda to the citizens for fun.
If anyone of you want to know the fuel, don't ask. I have been flying it around and the fuel has never gone below 100%.
Meaning of Palan:
Sindarin for "far" I think
If you read this far down, good job. Here is a tip:
Do not make sudden adjustments to the pitch of the aircraft as control will be lost. Do not attempt to recover. Bail out. If you have no parachute, you had it coming.
Thanks for reading this far, now go back to scraping the burnt remains of this aircraft off the ground/seabed or go back to looking for it.
And now for something completely different.
Rule Britannia! Britannia rules the skies.
You will always, always shall be slaves.
