PROHT Air, being dissatisfied with the C-17s barrowed from the Army for the following reasons:
1> The C-17 had an ungainly operating cost
2> The C-17 was too big for most PROHT airports
3> The C-17 was too slow for express flights
4> During wartime the C-17s would be called up by the Army
PROHT air, after revewing a demonstration of PDE propulsion in Flightopia's Talon, decioded to develop a small jetliner based around the lines of a Learjet, a pair of hybrid PDE\Turbofans, and a delta wing and canard configuration.
The new plane is expected to be able to supercruise at approxamately Mach 1, with the unofficial goal of mach 2.
In the meantime, PROHT Air has procured a pair of F-104 starfighters to test PDE fittings and potential space travel training.
Resaults shall be posted.
