Originally it was supposed to have 24 fighter jets on its wings like missiles. Oh and it was going to have 4 or 5 docking stations on the back of the wings so that C-5 and C-17s that would be able to take troops to land and take out land targets/airfields. It was going to be nuclear powered above 16k feet and was supposed to be able to take off on short runways with the help of additional jet turbines on the nose and belly.

You've been tasked on a mission of destroying an unknown American plane flying off the coast of South Korea, you fly in a formation of 15+ jets in a plane you've been told will single handedly be more than a match for any flight of American Jets. You're confidence booming and thoughts of medals and extra rations when your plane start warning you of an incoming missile. From where? How far? Malfunction? You are your entire flight descend rapidly to defend, next thing you know your buddies become fireballs all around you, 1, 2, maybe even 3 missiles strike a single plane. An explosion rocks and shakes you, your plane is now on fire and controls are dead, you look around and both wings are missing and you are in an uncontrollable dive.
