Twin Hull Concorde Idea

[Cobra]

Hey Guys, This was an Idea i was Trying to research, Did Anyone Ever Look at Maybe trying to make a Twin Hull or Zwilling Concorde? Think it might be Something Anyone Here would Want to take a Crack at? What Say You? thanks for looking. Dan

One of Vostoc7's masterpieces! 

One of the very few that aren't blue and gold!

In real life it'd probably suffer from horrible shock wave interactions, but in Whiff World, go for it! 

Having said that, isn't there a design in BSP4 - Missiles & Hypersonics for a ramjet airliner that has two pointy fuselages with delta wings on the outside and a ramjet duct in the centre?

Can't find the one I mean on the web, but this shows the general idea:



from here: http://www.transportarchive.org.uk/getobject.php?rnum=G1546&searchitem=RAF&mtv=G1&pnum=10 which looks like a damned interesting site!

Interesting !! -- make it a stand-off missile bomber == Warning - a "Tophe" idea ...

As British designs are traditionally short on range, right fuselage is actually a big missile which is launched at the carrier's maximum range -- the carrier then returns as an asymetric aircraft.

how about two fuselages right next to each other and blended together. A double wide SST.

another cut-away from the same site show it also as a twin hull passenger jet!

Well done - that's exactly the one I was looking for!

Here's a somewhat related student concept from Virginia Tech that I'm pretty sure Tophe will love:

[Tophe]

Yes I love, thanks Martin!
(and not only the twin-fuselage part but the asymmetric one too!)

[Tophe]

I updated my asymmetric site http://cmeunier.chez-alice.fr/Asymm_addition.htm (the end of it)
Thanks again!
