Why do I think the "cheap" NGAD might be radarless? The size of AESA radars often dictate the shape and size of the fuselage. F-35/F-22s already use LPIRs (Low-probability-of-intercept radar) to avoid detection, but not having any radar to leak RF/EM would be ideal and free up space for RIST.
The entire skin of the aircraft is the AESA radar. No more panels in the nose. Same with the B-21. 🤙🏼
*derp IRST (Infrared Search and Track) or the more modern EOTS (Electro Optical Targeting System) like F-35's AN/AAQ-37. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN/AAQ-...
