It is slightly smaller and said to be more fuel efficient for longer endurance. The " Roll out " will not have the fanfare and press coverage of the B-2. The U.S I'm sure feels the less said and known about this aircraft, the better.



....but, but, but, what about he merchandising? Space Balls, er I mean B-21 the lunchbox, B-21 the sports wear, B-21 the breakfast cereal, B-21 the body spray, B-21 the Disney movie!
