This is definitely out of my knowledge area, but that bumpy wheel sticking out the bottom sure does look like it would cause a lot of drag........maybe that doesn't matter when your goal is to go up and not forward. The rest o the plane looks so incredibly smooth.....the wheel just looks out of place.

And how in the world does the pilot stay warm? I suppose they have some form of battery powered clothing for him......it has to be incredibly cold at those altitudes.

Someday I will be old......But not today!
