Reaching back to bring things up to date

DARPA has a design under study for a twin fuselage seaplane/heavy lifter to move people and things across the Pacific Ocean. The new project looks much like Vincent Brunelli’s blended wing designs of the 1930s. The Air Force brought Northrop’s late 1940s YB-49 up to date with computerized operations and called it B-2. What the past designed, the future might accept. DARPA should at consider looking at that Michelangelo guy and his designs of rotary wing aircraft.
