The performance specifications look attainable, but I feel the physical specifications seem to be strongly at odds with the drawing. The drawing appears to be a cross between the F8F Bearcat and the J2M Raiden, but the physical dimensions are more in the way of the F4U Corsair. Given the bombload you're proposing, I'm guessing that you're attempting to clone the F4U's specs and performance - but it doesn't feel like they would match the drawing you have. It's like the specs describe a completely different plane than what's in the drawing.

Just my two cents, of course.
