Sub-orbital rocket powered bomber. It can reach 1000mph easily with a smooth control. No landing gears is installed, cause I couldn't find a proper reference. However it doesn't affect taking off and landing. I will try to make another version with bombs in the future. Have fun!

I believe that the Silverbird has a down-trimmed main wing for generating a hypersonic wave that reflects the aircraft upwards. Also, that it does uses a streamlined fuselage, as resistance reduces at its speed of 5-6 mach.
