Auto Credit Based on Garuda1ITalisman's Ultraheavy Seaplane Challenge

(This is a fictional aircraft)

The PB-10 was a late WII submission by Grumman Aircraft to fill an increasing need for aircraft that could seek out enemy ships and U-boats. Unfortunately, the war ended before the PB-10 could be implemented, and without a great need for patrol boats in the post-war era, funding for the project was pulled and the aircraft was lost to history.

VTOL up to raise landing gear. Don't be too aggressive on take-off or landing approach. She's a big, heavy bird and needs to be treated gently and with patience.
