Turret of the type of HD 151/2 can also be placed in this position . In many cases , the B- 2 stand sometimes omitted for the sake of maximizing speed while minimizing the reduction in congenital bomb . Note the camouflage pattern of interest in the engine cover . It could be the camphor with patches of RLM 65 RLM 71 , which indicates its role as a maritime aircraft . This photo was taken in the Mediterranean , although the exact location and date unknown
