Claim:
A strong aircraft that can be adapted for bomber, transporter, air-to-air fueling tanker, and space plane use, said aircraft comprising: a rhomboid airframe with a dihedral bottom surface and a top surface designed as an airfoil, said top surface also having a front portion with an accelerator ramp and said dihedral bottom surface configured to cause a pressure drop under said airframe during take-off and landings; a central tube within said airframe configured to provide a strong backbone for said aircraft, said tube extending substantially the full length of said airfiame and adapted for housing items selected from a group consisting of munitions, passengers, and cargo; a canopy and a portion of said tube configured for providing a location to house a pilot; at least one fuel tank positioned above said tube; at least two flaps within said bottom surface configured for breaking pressure drop under the airframe and permitting upward movement of nose movement for take-off instead of tail down movement; and a tail assembly adapted for stability of said airframe during ground movement and flight.
