The '''Aketzalli Axinitlan AITC-14''' ''Atl-Iohui Tlamanicuiztli'' ({{wp|Seaplane|Seajet}} {{wp|Ground-effect vehicle|Surface Glider}}) is an [[Aztapamatlan|Aztapaman]] {{wp|Anti-submarine warfare|anti-submarine}} aircraft in service with the [[Aztapaman Navy]]. It is notable for its unorthodox design created by the Aztapaman aeronautic engineer [[Micol Aketzalli]], which is primarily intended to operate within the {{wp|Ground effect (aerodynamics)|ground effect}} above land and especially over the surface of the ocean. While in the ground effect, the AITC-14 can reach speeds in excess of 750 kilometers per hour, cruise at 650 km/h and carry a payload of more than 20,000 kilograms. Unlike other Aztapaman {{wp|Ground-effect vehicle|surface glider}} designs, it is also capabale of conventional flight outside of the ground effect albeit with reduced speed and range with a service cieling of roughly 8,000 meters (26,000 ft). The main feature of surface gliders, and the principal advantage of the AITC-14 design created by Aketzalli is the capability to carry a heavy payload comparable to that of a ship at speeds competing with those of aircraft due to the aerodynamic advantages of traveling within the ground effect. The AITC-14 was the first military surface glider design and the first ground effect vehicle to reach wider success, demonstrating the viability of such a craft and the ambitious prosals of Micol Aketzalli for other uses to Axinitlan and other manufacturers.
