Developed between 1996 and 1998, the WT-19 Skymaster promptly replaced the foreign designs for transport aircraft in Wingarde. After fully entering service in 1999, the Skymaster began its career transporting military goods all over the nation and allies, even though it would easily be able to reach farther places if necessity dictates so. Its spacious hold can transport cargo and troops to any destination in the planet since it’s runway requirements are more than acceptable, even for an aircraft this large.
