Kinda looks like the B-2 Spirit.

Maybe they added some cup holders.

Blended-wing (and I think it’s a cranked-wing) design is the way to go for stealth bombers and (eventually) tankers.

B-21 is significantly smaller than B-2 yet electronics is what...? 30 years more advanced? And radar image has shrunk much more than physical size proportionally.

HAHA -- the B-2 doesn't have a bunk, the crews use a lawn chair for one of them to sleep while the other one is monitoring the autopilot. There's no seat for a third crewmember.

BTW, the B-21 is capable of missions without crew aboard. A superdrone.
