What the hell is that middle engine doing there? I don't see space for another tail.

I think they put another set of wings and engines on the back. Because scifi.

I think its just Marvel's version of a C-17.

Definitely a CGI aircraft based on the C-17.

It's a disgrace is what it is. If you're going to pretend there's as much room in a plane as they showed in the show, with the multiple floors and the various rooms and what not, you best not show up with anything less than a goddamn Galaxy.

I saw one of these do a "combat takeoff" once. Hooooolllly Shit, what these things can do is simply amazing.
Thing is, they are beginning to develop frame issues from doing literally doing full 90 degree vertical takeoffs.

2nd engine designed to run on exhaust fumes from front engine. It's a revolution!

Sorry, that's a C-5 in that photo..
And it's been Photoshopped.
The video that screen grab was from is also funny, as the photographer zooms in and tilts the camera to get the same effect shortly after this frame.
Those aircraft (C-5 and C-17) would stall long before they hit that angle at take off.

Cobra sees no problem with this.

I know. It's still much greater than pretty much any other AC out there
It's mainly done at air shows and in deployed places

T tail will probably fit here.

You knew that, but still posted the inaccurate comment?
I appreciate a joke as much as the next person, but that seems like trolling to me.

Meh, just didn't realize it until I had already posted it, but figured no one would notice.

Hollywood has no concept of the internal space available on aircraft (i.e., very little). Airplanes don't have full basements and attics, and what space exists is filled with wiring and duct work.

It's a massively retarded C-17 Globemaster with a second wing grafted on for reasons beyond comprehension. Why they couldn't have just used a normal C-17 is beyond me.
In its current configuration, it would not fly. Fact.
