Who said recon aircraft had to be normal! Shamelessly inspired by a certain German design this thing takes my natural approach of being even weirder in the name of some form of horizontal engine balancing. Scares me that it flies in a straight line tbh. Drop tank on 2. Feel free to check out the beta version as well!
