Both X-47 designs are technology demonstrators. The X-47B was designed without any real concessions to stealth - it is only intended to be "representative" at a high level. The overall planform and configuration is representative of a stealth aircraft. This was done because those things tend to influence handling and landing speed, etc. on a carrier.


The X-47B is not stealthy, wasn't intended to be, and was/is not intended for production.
