The little cockpit remind me the one of the Crusader A2 Hercules from Star Citizen

I'm glad this is fake because I already have megalophobia anytime I see current military transports in the air like the C5 Galaxy.

I can imagine it flying, but I can't imagine it filling up the cargo hold. Maybe it transports packing peanuts en masse.

It's for extra large payloads, not extra heavy payloads. IRL planes like Beluga and Super Guppy carry things like passenger plane parts, small planes, spacecraft, rocket stages, etc. This one could be used to carry Nova rocket first stages.

Yo dawg, I put a plane in your plane so you can plane while you plane.

It was designed with a specific payload in mind, the S-II stage of a Saturn V rocket

Loud Howard! Man, it's a shame Scott Adams went crazy, I really liked the Dilbert animated series back in the day
