That refueling nozzle alone has as big radar signature as the rest of the plane...  :lol

Yeah, it was distractingly ugly and rediculous IMO.  I personaly thought they could of made a more atractive and practical looking one out of a couple pencils, a used condom, and a couple rolls of duct tape, even just as a temp for an early-model display piece.

Didn't they say the same thing about aircraft as a whole back in WWII?

I do not know what they said at that time.  However, looking at this air craft in flight and dose make you wonder how they can land a goofy looking plane on a carrier.
