Indeed. It will be interesting to see how much they decide to preserve versus restore. At the very least the finished product will be a fully assembled and presentable aircraft, which is going to take a LOT of work given the present condition of the airframe.The good news about the NASM undertaking this work is that already a massive amount of information is coming out on the aircraft itself.Regarding the stealth bit, yeah, they're being very diplomatic My .02 is that it makes for a nice-to-believe story but i regard it as unlikely.In other news, work has been progressing on the He-219. The wing has been painted and i think there are no more major restoration tasks left to do other than re-assembling the aircraft (actually they need to fabricate antennas, which were somehow lost during storage), which is likely to take a while.
