Well if you make the effective width of the bomb bay bigger than the CEP of the bombs, then your hit rate is going to go up dramatically, isn't it?

Just don't buy any real estate next to the target.....

Oliv - nice one: ambitious!

Do you think it really needs the tailplane outers with all that tailplane area between the fuselages, and if it doesn't, then perhaps the fin/fins should be in the middle? Jiust my random thoughts.....

Wonderful!

Go on!

on the tail, This allows stiffening the aircraft. Wait for the suite, I've a surprise

Well, I think it looks prettier with tailplane extensions, so there

Quite mad.

One thing, though: no turrets on top?

Or on the bottom? Would be the perfect time to fix that particular shortcoming. Just cannibalize one or two from a B-17 or B-24 or you could go the remote control route and take them from a B-29! Looks good so far man, can't wait to see the final result.
