Lockheed Martin introduced a new model of the aircraft Source:

The Question of invisibility to radar is an extremely important aspect of reconnaissance aircraft and not only. Known to all American aircraft "Stealth" has survived many changes and was most recently presented new and very interesting iteration of the popular stealth aircraft.

Responsible For the development of well-known company Lockheed Martin, and the presentation was held at the aviation forum 2018 AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics). The new version of the aircraft at the moment is called the Advanced Aerial Refueling. From the model name you can guess about the purpose of the aircraft: it is intended to act as a refueling tankers aircraft. The fact that continuous improvement of aviation technology has made stealth aircraft to make a real breakthrough in the field of stealth to radar, in that time, the tanker remained at almost the same level as a few years ago.

an earlier version presented stealth aircraft

In Addition, Lockheed Martin also showed earlier concepts Advanced Aerial Refueling. But if you compare these models, we can see the change in the shape of wings, tail and a different location of certain elements of the case. Most likely, this is done to ensure that the plane was more streamlined and invisible to tracking systems.

Testing early models of the Advanced Aerial Refueling

It is Worth noting that Lockheed Martin has already submitted a concept with a similar set of functions called the Speed Agile, so that the deceased Advanced Aerial Refueling may not be the final model. However, the fact that "stealth refueling tankers" sooner or later, you will create, no doubt. Especially if you consider the fact that the model has passed a series of tests and began to take more or less final form.
