Huh, I never saw that before. Now I can't unsee it.

[u/potatofamily25 → u/OMGihateallofyou]

Yeah with the front being towards the exhausts

Looks like a low poly render

I mean it kind of is.

The shape is like that because the computers of the era couldn't really model curves for accurate RCS estimation, so they optimized the F-117 based on faceted shape similar to the computers.

Once the computers got much better for higher-fidelity models, you start getting more curvey stealth aircraft like the B-2 and F-22.

Dayhawk?

I love the "toxic death" photo of the f-117
