The YAM was unimpressed at the long take off run of the GR.Mk.1, so asked SeabCo to develop a VTOL version for use on the front line. This required a change of powerplant, and various weight-shifting. More VTOL friendly tailplanes were also added. A very useful side-effect of this conversion is an almost doubled top speed.
BTW the VTOL is revered, so move the slider down to go forward.
Keep Up The Good Work NATO!

    CoM should be in front of CoL for a functioning airplane, and for conventional take off and landing airplanes, the CoT can be anywhere as long as it isn't to either side or really high

    @PikeovlevPlanes Should the COs be equally spaced for level flight?

    @PikeovlevPlanes I know, I tried but it upset the stability, so I just left it, since it hovers at low throttle decently.
