Originally designed as a strategic high-altitude bomber, the Ascender was relegated to a tactical airlift role withsome modification afterflight tests revealed that it was severely underpowered and lacked maneuverability. As one pilot quoted "I've seen planes without wings fly better."

Finished here in experimental Anti-Flash white.

I haven't built the cockpit area fully as the build kept crashing my phone. Have fun and tweak it as you wish.

    @TheNightmare811 I know about the cockpit, I just can't do anything with it as my phone freezes when I load it :/
