Pretty cool. I wonder if it is based on a real ship? I have hundreds of Corvette images of different vessels but never seen one with a float plane on the back. Still way let facts get in the way of a good conversion!

And it begs the question: why are the depth charge flaps open on the stern?

Or are they trim tabs for when the parent ship is at 'flying stations' speeds??? :D
