Take a 1/48 F-23, scale o Rama to 1:72 and redesign the cockpit and you have a stealthier B-1.

Huh! Can't see it if you're not 'on Facebbook'.  :(
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

It involves clipping the wings, taking a section of fuselage out, and removing the outermost pair of engines. The inners would be replaced with Rolls Royce Darts. Solid radar nose, gun pack, under wing rocket pods, possible anti ship missiles on the wings and wing tip tanks  with the prvision for underwing tanks too. Camera ports on the rear fuselage could be added too. The nose will take some thinking as a round nose on a square fuselage will take some doing to look right.

Sounds like a good plan.  :thumbsup:
Would the nose need to be conical-style round?
Maybe slightly more rounded towards the front and lose the window lump, but still with the 'chisel' point.

I think to get it how I want it to look, it will need some major surgery. I have some roll on deodorant tops that look about right for the job, its just getting what will be behind it  to look right that  will leave me stumped.
