It looks like the wings retract at speed?

Those vertical stabilizers are TOO vertical for low-radar-signature, no?

This sketch has nothing to do with an article. It is clearly a mid-80s concept of hypersonic non-stealthy bomber built around a Tu-160 power plant.
If article is correct, new bomber won’t look like that.
