The GAL Hamilcar MKX

In due course we shall have more to say about this Hamilcar variant. Meanwhile, please note that this aircraft was designed for heavy load and as big as a Lancaster bomber - the engines, all two of them, were designed to help it get airborne whilst on a tow.

We will forge the regiment as a weapon of attack…Not only will we be trained as pilots, but in all we do…I shall be quite ruthless…only the best will be tolerated.
Lieutenant Colonel George Chatterton. October 1942
