While I still have my doubts on the use of UAV's, especially for an aircraft that size, the notion that a aircraft similar to the B-2 would seem likely, given the layout of the parking area to the north, which indicates a aircraft with a short length and a wide wingspan. Also, if more than one of that type has been flown out of Plant 42, that would justify the outdoor parking. If it was just for one, why have a spot to parking it in the open? Whatever it is, they certainly seem confident enough to let something about it show up on satelites, but out of view from public vantage points (hence the big dirt wall). This last point is another reason I speculate the possiblity of separate launch vehicle, especially is the partner vehicle is slung underneath, which can be hidden by the launch aircraft from above, and the dirt mound from ground level.
