Is there not a exhaust nozzle at the rear of the fuselage?

There is.......kind of. It looks a lot like the F-117 as far as the exhaust goes.

Bro! That’s a cool subject! Very cool!

So what are your ideas with the intakes? What have you been noodling?

Not sure yet. May leave them as they are because there's nothing behind them. Any ideas?

It's looking good Mike
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

More fun in the Gordy household! Looks good.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
