timber 3 #6 November 26, 2005 This is a Sukhoi SU-80GP. It is currently being developed and is similar to the M-28 Skytruck. It has a tail gate and holds 30+ jumpers. I have no idea when it might be produced and certified in the U.S. It looks like it would be a wonderful jumpship. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JumpShipGypsy 0 #7 November 27, 2005 I saw that on e-bay. I doubt that there is more than a artist rendering and a busness plan yet. Its vaporware. But it looks cool. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that cruising speed is significantly slower than a C-130, so presumably no problem there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
