Auto Credit Based on Graingy's Unprocessed Plane Challenge
This is Bob.
Say Hi to Bob.
Bob was borne of an hour of sleep deprived curiosity.
I do not know by what enigmatic machinations of aerodynamics Bob takes to the air with such elegance.

The moveable outer wings was a thing I was trying out and neglected to remove
The double nose was intended to appear as an open mouth but admittedly doesn’t work well
The colours are based off the classic programmer socks

Okay, criticisms off the bat:
Wings could've been sealed better to avoid holes. Also, forward primary wings would've looked better if they'd been all white instead of having dark control surfaces.
I do like the use of pylons behind the cannons.
Colours are... interesting. Like cotton candy. Not sure what's up with the nose, though, nor why there's two. Care to shed light?
The wings are a Kraken Drive when swept forward. Just spin, though. I... have no idea what to say to this. How queer!
I must admit, I'm not generally a big fan of swing wing aircraft in SP, seeing as they don't actually improve performance in any fashion and just mess with flight performance. This is more of a personal stance of mine, but seeing as judging is entirely to my discretion... it will play a part. Especially due the issues it introduces to this craft.
Engine could stand to be more powerful - it's rather slow as-is. Putting the intake behind the cockpit also looks rather strange.
Overall: functional enough, though I'd really have wished it were faster.
@Boeing727200F This one isn't Bob
I didn’t know that Bob I existed
another bob?
I will test this when I have the chance.
