Fascinating. B2 replacement to be revealed later this year I wonder?

The depth and breadth of US military capability never ceases to amaze me.

There is not a lot of tail clearance at lift-off in a normal B737-200, so that aft radome probably requires more flap than normal to get a lower lift-off attitude. Possibly also increased Vr?
