Optical countershading!

For stealth.

… BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT

The phobes will not hear the BRRRRRRT

Context: the A10’s gun famously makes a distinctive brrrrrt sound. This is due to the bullets going supersonic. That’s why people on the receiving end of the gun are be unalive before the supersonic shockwave reaches them.

“You’ll never be a r-”

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT

Nice looking plane!
