Catty:
I know a lot about Blackbirds. I know that they also launch on only half their fuel capacity, otherwise they exceed their maximum takeoff weight and are refueled immediately after their airborn. They are very high-maintenance birds indeed.
My idea was that they would take an old airframe, strip it down, and rebuild it with modernized components so a lot of the issues that the old Blackbirds had would not trouble this refitted model.
However, you do raise some valid points - it would be kinda silly to go through that sort of trouble, as much as the Chief Executive would love it.
Oh yeah, little side note: Black Aeronaut Technologies would NOT be publicly traded. Granted, going public is a good way to gain revenue, but it leaves too many doors open for something like GENOM to use as an avenue of take-over. Nope, BA Tech is privately held by several wealthy scientists who's only goal is to provide Humanity the means to go to the stars... Among other things.
Griever:
Oh, so it's Kaos you want, eh? Okay then, he'll be there along with his alter-ego, Den. Kaos would be a great PR guy and archivist while Den spends his time being a tactical advisor to the team. The two butt heads constantly on issues of war and peace, but they certainly agree that GENOM presents a clear and present danger.
I think I will go for that idea I had about the revised team. However, Ben would still be around - he would be to Black Aeronaut what Hayao Miyazaki is to Studio Ghibli. And like Miyazaki he would take personal interests in certain projects, so you can expect to see him in a hardsuit when someone else has made it "personal."
As for his hardsuit? Well, since he's the VIP and the suit isn't expected to see a lot of action, they really splurged on it. Vibro Slingblade on right arm, a hard shield on the left that also houses a pair of smallish PBC's configured for burst-fire only. In the shoulder mount is a six barreled rotary minimissile launcher and a clip for twelve more missiles.
