Default OT, but the Nazi stealth fighter on NGC

National Geographic Channel will be running a program on Sunday, June
28, about the Horton flying wing jet fighter from late WWII and how some
people at Northrop-Grumman built a full-scale replica of it recently and
stuck it into a radar test cell to see if it was indeed as stealthy as
has been claimed:

The head of the project for building the replica is playing it pretty
coy until the program airs, but if you read between the lines of his
posting to this website, it indeed was mighty stealthy:

Whatever else one can say about its flying and stealth abilities, it
sure was a beautiful aircraft... as streamlined looking as a boomerang:
