  1. The rear exhaust would still be valuable information, as China's new stealth bomber the H-20 seems to be their take on the older B-2. It'll be interesting to discover how much of the Spirit's emissions performance they were able to replicate.

  2. Or the H-20 merely copied off the older B-2 design, implementing few if any improvements that the B-21 was designed around.

  3. No, the military just wasn't that concerned about an overhead shot. The real secrets are from behind through the exhaust and how it mitigates the infrared and radar of the back. Rumor is the overflight was specifically allowed as a controlled leak to the Soviets, whose spy satellite they were also showing for fell out of orbit prematurely.
