Canard in front of air intake is a big mistake

my old photoshop.
canard in front yes, but above the air intakes

Still problematic in positive angle of attack. Turbulent airflow will screw up the airflow in the intake.

Move them further forward closer to the nose. Problem solved.

thank you all for the technical contribution.

Anything in front of the air intake (no matter the distance) that causes turbulent flow will seriously damage your powerplant performance. It could be avoided for some angles of attack but ultimately is an inherently risky design and frankly not worth it.

Just sides of air intakes solve the problem

eliminate the canards

eliminate the canards

You could hav added some air intake above the engine.
But in the end the design wont go anywhere without bigger and more powerful engine than j-85 and for that you need bigger intake.
