Cruise Creeper is a simple aircraft designed as a compact and discreet delivery platform for a single cleaver cruise missile.
The missile is stored in a central bomb bay, with doors opened by VTOL down. Detach force on the pylon will evacuate the missile with enough force to clear the plane quickly, making it safe to fire in most orientations.
It also comes equipped with countermeasures to help it escape once it has released its deadly payload.
Takeoff requires a long roll. Rotation occurs around 190 mph.
Landing is pretty simple. Use 30% throttle for approach, and set it down gently to keep the props safe.
Bicycle landing gear, along with two struts under the engines to keep the propellers off the ground make it fairly safe in a less-than-optimal landing.

Where are u? Like what happened?
@Boiiiiiii It ain't the best-looking, but it flies nice. Propellers are too easy to strike on landing though.
@Boiiiiiii This is pretty far from my best work, but thanks!
@Treadmill103 The extra wheels are just to stabilize it on the ground and keep the props from striking. I was pretty lazy for a lot of this build. The whole plane was slapped together in probably about 10 minutes.
