The C-52 Super Gayal is the official entry aircraft of Joint International Aerospace Conglomerate (JintAC) for the cargo challenge by SimpleFlow. The new C-52 aircraft is an upgraded model of the previous and highly popular C-52A Gayal heavy cargo aircraft. The development of the C-52B has been implemented through the successful Operational Feedback Program (OFP) of the existing C-52 fleet and by the rising needs for modern, reliable, heavy-duty strategic airlift of the current and new users of the aircraft. It is equipped with state-of-the-art combat optronics systems for complete autonomous battlefield support, an integrated electronic warfare system and is certified for air-refueling (via probe system).
The C-52B Super Gayal is a Strategic Airlift Multi-Role Platform aircraft (SAMROP) and it is designed as a multi-role, heavy cargo transport and battlefield support aircraft.
The C-52B’s wing has common structure with the previous C-52 models with reinforced mounting locations and revised tactical lightning for night-vision and low light operations.
The new C-52 cabin can be modified to carry up to 320 passengers in a single class configuration, allowing a complete range of configurations from maximized troop transport to complex customization suitable for VIP and guest missions. Available configurations include 300 passengers in a single class and 250 passengers in two classes. The C-52B can also be configured to perform Medical Evacuation (Medevac) missions; up to 150 standard stretchers can be carried. The main deck cargo configuration allows carriage of standard commercial containers and pallets, military, ISO and NATO pallets (including seats) and containers, and military equipment and other large items which are loaded through a cargo door. Like the previous C-52 variants, includes two lower deck cargo compartments (forward and aft) and a bulk area capability. The cargo hold has been modified to be able to transport up to 11 military pallets in addition to civilian Unit Load Device (ULD).
The C-52 Super Gayal is positioned as an intermediate size and range between the A400M Atlas and the C-17 Globemaster III, carrying cargo too heavy for the A400M while able to use rough landing strips. It has been advertised, from company sources, with the tagline "transport what the A400M cannot to places that the C17 can’t".
The upgrades included in the aforementioned OFP are:
-Better deck space management and use of synthetic material in the inside of the aircraft in order to augment the payload capability in Cargo Mode to 150.000lbs (68.000kg).
-A newer and more redundant tactical flight management system with more powerful Mission Computer Modules.
-A totally upgraded electronic counter-measure system with sensors and antennas throughout the fuselage.
-A next-generation Chaff and flares dispenser (AN/ALQ-620 Citadel) with increased decoys storage.
-Re-designed tail plane for enhanced airdrop stability.
-Addition of receptacle re-fueling point just behind the existing refueling probe for optimum mission accomplishment.
-Addition of winglets on the main wings for better fuel efficiency (4% less fuel consumption as indicated by the flight tests).
-Re-mastered aft ramp-door with stronger hydraulic actuators and more robust construction in order to load heavier cargo (i.e. Main Battle Tanks or Assault Vehicles)
-Re-designed landing gear system for rough and unprepared surface operations and addition of tire-protection titanium shield
-New FADEC software for more detailed and more durable power control, even in situations of triple engine failure.
-Re-engineered cockpit layout taking into account CRM suggestions and battle efficiency assessments.
-New lights (both navigation and taxi/landing), certified for NVG operations and night air-refueling operations under any weather conditions.
-Formation/approaching/position stripes with luminous coating, which provides long-term low-intensity illumination in the dark for air re-fueling missions and closed formation flights.
---------------------------------------------
New Capacity Specs after the OFP upgrades:
-80 paratroopers or
-110 troops with palletized and sidewall seats or
-40 troops with sidewall seats (allows 11 cargo pallets) only or
-30 litters and 50 ambulatory patients and medical attendants with complete medical equipment
-a Main Battle Tank and three Armored Vehicles, or five Armored Security Vehicles
-2 medium-sized Military helicopters (i.e. UH-60 Blackhawk or AH-64 Apache)

    @ErvenDynamics Try to reverse engineer my ramp design. The secret is not to build it directly in touch with the fuselage but first assemble it separate and then attach it to fuselage.
