Rolling Thunder mk.1a

647 TuckerAeronauticalLabs  8.5 years ago

An eight-engined long range heavy bomber with aft mounted wings. The Rolling Thunder uses a lot of elements from my older plane, the Pacific Wind. Some neat features if this bomber are all-moving canards, wing-tip mounted vertical stabilizers, and a bombardier's position just behind the nose gear. VTOL slider up to extend the air brakes.
