Long range supersonic bomber carries 15t payload but only weight 20t? Sounds good to me.

Sorry but I have to refuse this time, can not think of a good topic.
We need someone with a good idea!

Yes. I don't really want people to cheat the challenge by pulling down the limiter or testing at 50%.

I'm sorry, but you have to burn for a minimum of 6 minutes.
But you can't keep the max throttle for 5 minutes or the aircraft will burn down! KS-25"Vector" is a very powerful engine even when tweaked smaller. It can maintain cruise with only 1/3 throttle.I'll redesign it.

·Intakes are only for decoration.·Able to fly 7min30sec with max throttle.·Most of the fuel is stored in the wing.
·Entering space is highly not recommended due to its layout.
·Improved version of CA655, has better fuel efficiency but worse acceleration.

How would people feel about diversifying the specifications from "planes" to "everything in atmosphere"?
Absolutely great idea!

As you wish
Week 7:
Topic: Gliding
You are to design a glider provides pastime to Astronauts and/or for tourist to KSC.
To test, you can choose the starting point —— on mountain peak, tow by another plane or even take-off itself.
In KSP, you can not soaring a Glider with thermal column or any other advanced aerodynamics, so the engines
are unprohibited, but you must ensure that the aircraft is gliding unpowered.
Crew: at least one pilot.
Range: able to tour around KSC
Speed, weight and size are unlimited as long as its capable to glide.

The solid rocket is the payload, it does not decouple from the plane. It should be fully fueled and activated while still attached.
Active a solid booster inflight without decouple it?
