[(ooc) this is for my post-modern timeline and has no bearing on modern tech tpm]

In order to better safeguard our space-stations, dense satelite network,
manned scientific space flights and to have the ability to destroy space
based nuclear weapons and anti-missile systems, The Phoenix Milita
government has ordered Phoenix Dynamix INC to create Exo-Atmospheric
fighters. So far they have come up with one design which will be launched via
conventional booster or much like our space shuttles, on the top of a
modifed 747-400 aircraft.

here it is:
