UMM-9 Carapace missile launcher/container and AMM-6 Python long-range general-purpose missile.
The payloads of these two types have been enlarged to 150% and 180% of the original payloads, respectively.
This results in the following problems
When either the UMM-9 Carapace or AMM-6 Python is suspended below the wings, there is an increased risk of the lower end of the payload coming into contact with the surface and deck when landing, or landing on the carrier's flight deck.
VERITECH aircraft carry the load of carrying arms and legs in flight at all times from the outset of the design concept, and the undercarriage is longer than that of a non-transforming aircraft from the outset. The undercarriage is longer than the non-transforming aircraft from its inception.
Now, it is impossible to extend the undercarriage beyond what is shown in this art.
If the undercarriages are forcibly extended, they cannot be stowed in the fuselage of the aircraft, or a huge bulge must be provided and its cavity used as additional storage volume.
In the current art, undercarriages are still bent and folded and stored in the fuselage of the aircraft.
Further folding is not possible from the standpoint of structural strength.

>Ooh! You knew the artist. Will credit.
>Also, the drawing depicts the TLM-1 launcher a bit small and outboard. Debating fixing and updating on my own version.
