  • Oppose – there is too big a shadow on the front face, it's too dark. Bammesk (talk) 02:42, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I don't agree with Bammesk here, because it's a semi-reflective charcoal-black-painted jet. Since it's symmetrical, so you can see the other side, there's no real detail hidden by the shadow, but lightening it would misrepresent the actual colour and reflectivity. Compare File:F-117A_GBU-28.JPEG and File:F-117A_GBU-28.JPEG - the way it's painted clearly means small differences in lighting are heavily emphasised.
