We spoke briefly about why.

Just to rank how difficult it was to protect a B-52 in a dense defensive radar environment, our current B-2 stealth bomber has a radar signature of about an aluminum marble, while the B-52 designed in 1950 has the radar signature of a 170-foot sphere. It was like trying to fly a whale through a fish tank and not get noticed.

How many entrepreneurs opening words are about how stealth their project is, followed by a 10-page NDA to hear word one? If so, I hate to break it to you, but theres a good chance it will fail.
