The Boeing Model 985-121 was intended as a microfighter to be carried onboard a Boeing 747, It was to be armed with twin 20mm cannons and 2 hard points for missiles or bombs. For more information check out Mustards channel on the Boeing 747-ACC titled "The Air Force’s Crazy 747 Aircraft Carrier Concept", Yes this was a real concept not fiction.

Oh, good luck! ;)
Make the entire 747 in the video that mustard did! Btw I literally just watched it 1minute ago!
@Jurassicty060 Agreed that would be rather optimistic, However the MiG-21's armaments weren't THAT great, A NR-23 23mm and later GSh-30-1 30mm (IIRC) plus the anemic missiles, But an upgraded variant with AA-11's would be a lot to deal with for such a tiny fighter.
There is no way this thing will go against MIG-21
@BlackhattAircraft yeah me too
@Jurassicty060 np

Here are the schematics of the whole project. Page 33 you will see the idea they had in mind on gears & Other landing solutions.
Yeah
@GrOuNdZeRo
@Djorg708 Yeah he did a decent job, I like the integration of air brakes and I may have to install those on my own, I installed landing gear on mine since I wanted to see how well it takes off, CoG does shift considerably when fuel and ammo stores run out.
I saw it last night and I was like OOOOOwww I wonder how it flies! It seems to be do reasonably well!
Now everyone is making these... check out @Falkenwut ‘s it’s also pretty cool
@BlackhattAircraft you should mustard is a good channel for learning
@Jurassicty060 I need to check it out
Mustard did a video about this on YouTube
