I have been fancing around with this one for a while.
It needs a 1100 hp V-8 minimum !

Looks as if the P-63 had better drag coefficiency for the fuselage.

Small adjustments.
This ought to be aerodynamically in par with TU-95 The BEAR ! OTOH has 10 fold the power to weight ratio. Ok..it has a smaller RE number which does some damage but still.

At 345 mph speed the craft burns 100 gallons in LA-NYC route.

Here is the ultimate version of this Super Pony....a V-tail idea came to me when yesterday a Fouga Magister ( civilian registered ) flew above our house doing some mild aerobatics.
I counted a 545 mph top speed at 3180 Newtons of thrust using 990 hp ( tops ) apparently just 750 hp will do.
Plane is 16 ft long and 17.4 ft spanning.
Engine is 6.4 litre LQ9 V-8 that costs stock 8700 usd at Turn Key.
