So @LJSpike built this but couldn't get the aircraft vertical landing capable. I've reconfigured the brakes and added roll control at the wing tips, you can now come to an effective stop in mid air by viffing (vectored in forward flight) with group 1 activated (most of the airbrakes linked to the jets) and choose to go up or down (power at about 55% is the balance point) it's not perfect but it's certainly usable like this. Also stuck some more appropriate weapons on board that fire off with 3-6 inclusive, activating group 1 for the airbrakes ditches the missiles and the racks.
