And suggestions are invited for a name... How about the B-2a
Or, "How the B-29D Became the B-50."
The frustrating thing for me is that back in the late '70s, when the B-1 was going through one of its periodic cancellations, I (a B-52 EW) tried to persuade SAC to consider instead a low-reflectivity flying-wing platform with the engine inlets and exhausts on top and gold-plated windows to keep radar from bouncing off the pilot's fillings. The response I got was basically 'If we want ideas, we'll hire a civilian to have 'em.'
The satisfaction of having been right is much overrated.
