I think this idea has some merit.

Huge fuel capacity, so long on station time. Which is nice for the blunties to see on paper.

For crew, plenty of galley space. I mean more DCS than the catering department can handle galley space. Keep the showers, for less post flight time to the bar.

Four jet engines, so no broadband noise, and let's face it, maritime needs 4 engines.

P8 is for weenies
