You know, They wouldnt use the EXACT same plane numbers again. There is already a YF-23 And it was beaten by the F-22. It was called the Black Widow II.

Only thing I dislike here is the trailing edges of the diagonal stabilizers.

The canards were likely to be used as lifting canards to add more lift-generating surfaces to the aircraft to allow it to take off from a carrier more easily. Lockheed's idea was to use VG swing wings. Both ideas would have compromised some degree of stealth but I guess you can't win them all. Nice drawing as always!

I like it how the canards are placed so that they flood the stabs with turbulence.

Based on that relatively new post on SecretProjects, I take it?

Cool! Is it sort of a combo between the Raptor and the Black Widow II? It seems to have features of both in it.
