To eliminate gear-up landings the monowheel landing gear is non-retractable.
It had a retractable tailwheel landing gear with the main gear retracting into the engine nacelles.

It would have been very challenging to retract the landing gear into the wings.
The main landing gear is made from sprung steel and mounts drum brakes.
