Guys, check out the cockpit.
I know technology is wildly advanced and he probably has a 360 view now, but other than test pilots, who are you going to get to fly a plane that lacks a forward view?
With that huge honker of a nose, it’s not like you’d see much anyway. Entire cities could hide behind that
Looks like there's a forward facing camera.
This plane will only be flown by test pilots. Its a technology demonstrator. Researchers build one of these to test concepts in physics in the real world.
No instruments, just a microphone to talk to ChatGPT.
Basically Stealth IRL.
BTW, fucking coolest, most underrated movie ever IMO
With that speed you aren't able to react to anything visible in the flightpath anyway 💨
It's not supersonic during landing or taxing, which I guess is when a direct view would be more useful.
I wasn't serious.
laughs in P-51 mustang
You know planes fly at night yeah, when you can't see things
Oh of course. Landing might not be fun though.
