After the failure of the Boeing 2707-100, General Electric’s warehouse is filled with massive engines with no particular aircraft to mount them to. Then the USAF wanted a supersonic attack aircraft capable of 1000mph and able to destroy a carrier in one hit. Boeing leapt to the opportunity and along came GE, which finally has a plane to mount the engines from the 2707-100. The Boeing 2717 Super Sabre is a very capable craft, torpedos in this thing has no motor since how fast the plane goes, letting the torpedo carry more boof, and It can take off and land on water. Controls are (1 lights)(2 enhanced elevation control)(5 = torpedo drop)
