Ummm, that Northrop link? It's a flying wing, NOT a delta. Neither is the Navy bird. (and for Melmot, neither is the Boeing bird).

As for the absurd notion that Europeans "don't know a lot about aircraft" that's bollocks. I'm not remotely suggesting that deltas are a bad idea or obsolete. I'm just asking why Europe is enamored with deltas. I'm assuming they have their reasons.
