To be honest, my initial reaction was like 'eh?', pretty uncanny at first glance since I never expected the top intake to be so 'exposed' like that. Wouldn't it have much affect on frontal stealth?

And what about what seems to be the metal rim crossing midway? Does that imply further affects to stealth? Perhaps, it would be embedded well into the glass for a smooth precision work like a regular full glass canopy that its negligable.
