Never know what you'll wind up seeing at the local C&C. This belly-tanker showed up recently.

. TEJAS Tejas is a lightweight multi-role jet fighter developed by India. It is a tailless, compound delta wing design powered by a single engine. It came from the LCA programme, which began in the 1980s to replace India's aging MiG-21 fighters ..........

Thirty-two years after the project was sanctioned, the first indigenously-built Tejas Light Combat Aircraft was on Saturday handed over by Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar to the Indian Air Force, a red letter day for Indian defence and aerospace sector.
I guess that they were in no hurry.

After more than 30 years in the making the country's Tejas fighter has been rejected by the navy which is now looking for foreign jet builders to supply warplanes.

Correction; a 4000# V6 S-10, pulling some sort of 5th wheel extra axle trailer (about 1500#), with a 2500# MG on top, and pulling a 10,000# 5th wheel camper with another #1000 of belongings in it.

I bet this unit is a handful to drive, and probably illegal to boot.....but certainly woefully overloaded !

But I'm sure the S-10's brakes can handle it.
