The B-2 Stealth bomber makes about as much noise as any other airplane of the same thrust. Answer #2 The B-2 is not a spy plane, it is a bomber. The "stelth" part just makes it hard to detect with radar. == The B-1A that was first built was canceled by Congress due to costs and it was re-designed as the B-1B. The radar signature of a B-1A appeared to be about the size of an average Truck (I forgot at what range that is). The B-1B had a radar signature of a large bird.
So, who cares how noisy it is. Try shooting down a bird that is travelling at 700mph. Answer #4 No, having seen them fly over at a couple of airshows, the B-2 is actually very noisy, more so than most airplanes. It doesn't really matter; sound hasn't been used to try to find airplanes in flight since the early 1930s. It doesn't really work very well; it has a very limited range, and if you were to try, you would be trying to find a very weak signal in a bunch of other background noise (literally). At high altitude, from which it would be dropping bombs or (more likely) launching missiles, the noise issue is much less of a problem. At 40,000 feet, it's nearly 8 miles away when it's directly overhead.
