These were RCS profiles...all stealth aircraft get checked after major maintenance. No where else to go (at least not yet anyway) to do this but Groom. B-21 is still in envelope expansion. No doubt it will someday be cleared for 500kts/10K but I doubt that's a priority right now. That said, I missed that speed callout on the audio. While it doesn't necessarily eliminate the B-21, it makes it unlikely.
