The TC-27 Cormorant is a four-engine cargo plane designed by Leviathan-Automobile Aero-Division.
Although it carries no offensive armament, this aircraft's large interior can be used to store ammo crates and fuel containers for on-ground or precarious in-flight refueling/rearming. It can carry bombs, but the Cormorant's size and turning radius make level bombing difficult, if not impossible.
An Airborne Warning And Control System (AWACS) version, the EC-27 "Evening Star", is currently operating with the LERAF in a limited role, alongside the transport version. The Evening Star carries some radar equipment, although it has limited practical use.
