It would look better to shroud the engines into the fuselage similar to the B2 with thrust vector controls for better stability. The concept looks great but when the aircraft turns to bank the center of gravity shifts within the cargo hold and may cause instability. Thus the need for thrust vector controls and ruddervators.

Lol, they strap cargo down 😂 Ever see shopping cargo containers for UPS/DHL/Fedex? If fuel, there will be baffles.

When u see what these aircraft looklike nowonder people were reporting UFOs when they had test flights going on man❤

If the engine noise is much quieter that would be great!!!

Crazy how the military gets to use hydrogen now

the always get the best out there...

Probably a good idea for lift, but limited by aerodynamics and velocity issues. Obviously.

far less drag than a tube with wings approach.

but its so biiig....

Why is this design making news when back in the late 1980's Dr. Robert Liebeck, NASA and Stanford had a scaled down designed demonstrator flying at Edwards AFB. Liebeck was the lead Engineer at Douglas Aircraft at the time when I was an Engineer their at the Long Beach facility. They produced 3 iterations, when Boeing took over the company they just site on the design. They even off-loaded some their findings to Cranfield University in England.Those who control the money are sitting on this concept far to long. Sad state humanity is in with creative minds held back. I'm not a fan of Boeing.

Oh...really because ugh I seen one but don't look like this

Where is this money coming from? I had an Idea, build a company that provides a service that people need. After you get wealthy, build airplanes for fun. Stop spending my tax money that you don't have yet. Elon musk did it, why can't you?
