Cargolifter

Improved version (click here)

One of the most important aircraft of the war, it ferried cargo and troops across long distances, as well as dropping paratroops and towing gliders, and had a very good amount of space inside. It was originally developed out of a bomber as an airliner, and essentially used the very same wings and engines from it.

I had made this aircraft as a component of a big project (hinted at in the description), but I liked how it looked so I decided to upload it separately first, just because of how much I like it. It uses the same wings, engines, and gear from the Bomblifter, but everything else is different. The cockpit window is somewhat inspired by areyougood’s cockpit windows. Enjoy!

VTOL to control the flaps.
AG7 to toggle the landing lights (It will make sense soon)
AG8 to toggle the rest of the lights

PS: This aircraft is the first time I’ve used the Fine Tuner mod on something
