This craft was built before the L-11A post, when I wasn't in the community.
This experiment is to figure out whether an aircraft is possible to be completely immune to any missiles in simpleplanes, which makes it truly and completely "stealth".
I found out that missiles only follow your main cockpit block long ago, so to prevent the craft from getting destroyed by enemy missiles, we need to make the cockpit harder to hit.
I made the cockpit far away from the plane, and also making it constantly spinning and tiny. That way, missiles can hardly hit me, at least that's what I thought.
The aircraft with this modification was able to dodge all missiles from ice base or USS beast flotilla, or generic missiles without xml modifications. However, when facing missiles with excellent manoeuvrability, it just gets hit, a fail.
It has craft instructions.

@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Not exactly, but I've considered this method as well.
Basically, missiles will always target the cockpit, so the idea here is that the cockpit is put on a pole where it can be moved constantly and essentially torture missiles. Unfortunately, though, as this guy said, any missile strong enough for you to need stealth will just find the cockpit unless you make an absurdly long pole. And I mean absurd, like PC-crashing long.
There’s also the method where you drop a bunch of blocks equal to I think a third of the planes mass @theultimateplanelover is this correct
