What do you suppose the MTOW is on this?

I see no problems with this. Other than fueling. That might be an issue.

takes off in 100 feet and starts dropping engines to save weight/fuel. Totally logical

That seems costly even if the engines are recovered.

Lack of lift will not be a problem

When you have an AN225 but thrust is life.

-30 tonnes. The wings would take-off and the fuselage would be left sitting on the apron.

I have no doubt that thing can reach Proxima Centauri in a year.

At this point...is lift even required?

MTOW: Everything

They missed an opportunity to put some engines above the tailplanes A10 style!
You’d want to land it REALLY carefully with that ground clearance at the wingtips. On the other hand, once you’ve got the reverse thrust going, you’re stopping in about 5 feet,so there’s plenty of time to feather the touchdown....

Right, because the entire fuselage needs to be filled with avgas.

MTOW: 10,000 lbs. more

20. because engines take up most of the MTOW

Many MTOWs. Good, strong MTOWs.

I’m thinking “all the MTOWs.”
