The AGA Aviation LRG was a proposed amphibious transport glider design for the US Navy during World War II.
Development
The LRG was a design for a twin-hull amphibious glider capable of carrying 24 troops (12 in each hull). Length was to be 108 feet 6 inches (33.07 meters), span was to be 57 feet (17.37 meters), and maximum speed was estimated at 200 mph (322 km/h). Two prototypes along with a static test airframe were ordered on 23 December 1941, and 40 percent scale model glider with a civil registration was built to validate the aerodynamic behavior of the LRG. However, development of the LRG was cancelled in 1943 without either the prototypes or static test airframe ever being built.[1]
