Barracuda Seaplane

Aircraft World Research magazine,issue 2,2020: Developed from the discarded research of Kaman Air developmental projects. The small nation of Almerahna,an ally of Canubara uses the unusual SPR33 Barracuda,developed jointly between the 2 countries,for Sea rescue and recon duties. It uses a tilting wing system for vertical take off and landing. It's ability to do this isn't as reliable as it should be. It has some stability issues,but,is more usable in conventional flight. Only the most experienced pilots in the respective air forces/naval air groups fly this unusual plane. Thomas Bulsheffer contributing writer.
