DESCRIPTION
Overview

Expand your tactical digital deployment with this high-precision, fictional narrowbody military airborne command post and electronic warfare platform. While sharing core aerodynamic lineage with our baseline 1950s transport airframe, this specialized variant introduces a prominent fuselage-mounted dorsal radar radome and a re-engineered JT3C / J-57 turbojet engine configuration—reflecting the historical real-world evolution of Cold War-era strategic command networks like the Looking Glass EC-135C series.

Featuring a distinctively tapered, pointy nose profile inspired by classic 357-80 / model 717 configurations, this asset highlights exceptional craftsmanship across its updated powerplant pods and specialized electronic surveillance fairings. It serves as an ideal, highly detailed expansion or specialized alternative for your digital aviation fleet.

Commercial-Ready & IP-Free

This 3D asset is a 100% original, fictional military electronic-warfare aviation concept. Built completely from the ground up as a strict non-IP asset, it is fully cleared for commercial integration across video games, cinematic VFX setups, flight simulators, and interactive visualizations without any of the legal overhead, royalties, or complex trademark licensing agreements associated with real-world aerospace manufacturers or defense contractors.

Production-Ready Textures & Workflow
  • Specialized Radome & Engine Geometry: Features bespoke CAD-derived detailing for the upper fuselage radar housing and period-accurate turbofan engine cowlings.
  • Baked PBR Pipeline: Optimized with high-fidelity texture maps baked directly from industrial-grade CAD source geometry, delivering pristine, reliable material responses under modern real-time engine lighting conditions.
  • Pre-Applied Livery & UVs: Features a clean, fully UV-unwrapped layout with an included custom tactical livery texture set, providing an immediate drop-in solution that remains effortless to re-skin or re-brand.
  • CAD Surface Precision: Translated accurately from precise NURBS engineering models to guarantee true hull curvature consistency, clean edge flow, and smooth surface shading transitions without rendering artifacts.
  • Kitbash Ready Baseline: Functions as an incredibly flexible base mesh, providing an excellent engineering foundation for custom airframe modifications, specialized antenna radomes, hardware kitbashing, and rapid concept design pipelines.
Included Formats3D Real Time & Engine Deployment
  • Native .blend (Blender 3.6+ source project optimized for Cycles)
  • .OBJ (Optimized, untextured low-poly mesh variant tailored for custom livery artists)
  • .GLB / .GLTF (Drop-in ready for real-time applications, web viewers, and AR setups)
  • .PLY (High-poly variation incorporating vertex-based colors mapped straight from the CAD source—ideal for close-up visualization without needing external texture files)
CAD & Industrial Engineering
  • STEP AP214
  • IGES
  • CGR
3D Printing & Scale Modeling
  • STL
  • 3MF(Engineered to scale reliably across FDM and resin printing hardware. Adjust thin structural antenna cross-sections, radome mounts, nose fairings, or trailing wing elements depending on your targeted physical print scale).

Note: This asset focuses purely on model geometry and textures. It is delivered unrigged and non-animated, providing a clean, professional baseline for your studio's custom control-surface rigging pipelines.
