i don't know anything about aircraft, but i would be inclined to think that the lack of tail fin on a B2 isn't just a design flaw or technical debt from the previous model and that there were other reasons for it.
- oliveshell 8y agoYou’re right— the B2 was designed like it was in order to minimize radar cross-section at all costs. One could see, though, how a Boeing engineer could point to the B2 and fighters that rely on software for safe flight and say “See? They do it and it’s fine!” as a justification. Not that I’m saying that makes it right.
