"Stay on the line Sir, we're sending somebody out to you."

"Are you sending Animal Control?"

"No Sir, the Drug Squad..."

"Hello Drug Squad? This is the 911 Switchboard, we have a job for you."

"Okay, where's the job?"

"At the 911 Switchboard office..."

There's no backstory. Given the V-tail, I've suggested calling it a Republic B-39 Thundercloud...

This leaves me wondering about the landing gear? What would it look like, and where will it go?

Good question!

Maybe it's B-52 style: all in thr fuselage.

Maybe it's in the wings, with the wheels wells in betwen the outer jet and inner prop, the pivot point outboard of the inner prop and the leg sitting under the drive shaft between the engine and the prop when it's retracted?

I get Studio Ghibli vibes from this. Princess Nausicaa et al, you know..

Given the V-tail

Rather than V-tail (nor X-tail) this seems a Y-tail

[ChernayaAkula]

What a beast!  VERY cool! 
Loving the Y-tail and the mixed propulsion.

Is it variable geometry too?

It looks like it has some sort of a bulge outboard of the outer engines, and they would house the hinge points nicely.

Unless that's where the outriggers are.  Although it does look more like a wing fence than bulge

I thought that was where the wings folded so it would fit the lifts/elevators on the USN's new Super Carrier. And yes I know it's USAF but they might just have co-operated for once prior to McNamara ?
