Re-read the forum rules, MSOCS. They apply to you, irrespective of whether you think you know something or not, or whether you've been infected by the insane obsessions of some forum members.

No, I'm not saying what you say that I am saying.

However, it is fairly bleeding obvious that any aircraft carrying 2 x GBU-31s externally, for instance, has an RCS equal to or greater than 2 x GBU-31s, which have enough body-of-revolution shapes and orthogonal bits, even discounting the pylons and other naughty bits, to have an RCS which won't be orders of magnitude below an aircraft.

Which is why the B-2, to name but one example, doesn't have hardpoints.
