With body diameter growing single-body planes have seriuos limits for fuselage strength, so catamaran may work.
Designed for payload = 250 000 ib, expected
empty weight = 340 000 ib, 6 C-17 performance engines,
estimated range up to 9 000 km, cruising speed at 33 000 ft =
around 500 kts.
Flies surprisingly well even with max payload, lands smoothly with max. payload, allows rather steep glidepath due to high manouevrability.
