Auto Credit Based on hopotumon's Simple Fighter Challenge (Closed)
Since I have seen some "fantasy" aircrafts I also wanted to make such a design. The Proteus features excellent high speeds, high maneuverability and low takeoff and landing speeds. It's handling is also fentastic for a tailless plane. It also has four speed brakes which come in handy while dogfighting or landing. Give it a try and leave an upvote if you want to.

Simple Fighter Result
While you designed it as a fighter, I think this plane excels as a Strike aircraft. I took off the Air to Air missiles and put in SIX Cleavers and this plane took off and flew with no problem. Easy to sink the Beast and it's escorts.
