KSP 2 Modding Society Challenge 1: Duna Daredevil

[AtomicTech]

Hello everyone, AtomicTech here!

I started this challenge over on the KSP 2 Modding Society and I figured that I'd bring it over here to the forums!

Image from Penumbra's Submission over on the KSP2MS Discord Server.

For this challenge, should you choose to accept, you'll take an aircraft of your design and construction over to our rusted neighbor, Duna, and show off its capabilities!

You'll need to adhere to the following challenge constraints:

1. No infinite fuel or electricity.
2. No orbital placement cheats.
3. Your spacecraft must survive Duna entry, descent, and landing.
4. After landing, it must take off and travel at least 10 KM. (Note: The way to measure this is up to you; I recommend you take some sort of rover or small SRB-powered rocket to travel to your landing point .)
5. Kraken drive-powered submissions will be considered separately. 

Winners will be chosen March 11th, 2023; your imagination is the limit!

God, this took so much longer then i expected it to xD

In hind site, the plane design aint the best for new bumpy af duna. If i ever make a v2 ima sweep the wings upwards instead of going for a low sweep approach, but at least it looks pretty cool and had a relatively low stall speed (for duna anyway). Here are some pics from the trip  (plane still got 2.5k delta.v post landing so should be able to do 10km i believe  )
