Hello, Magoo:

On the F-117A Webmaster's site, the figures for the so-called "Super Size F-117" you ask about, are found in the ATA-B section. The airframe designer, Melvin "Gene" Salvay, describes it as (planform) a long
narrow delta, with serrated trailing edges; fwd swept
rudders on an articulating pylon that extends from the
trailing edge; air intakes in the leading edge (not on
top like 117 or B-2); and there are a lot less facets on the design.

PS:
I believe Steve Douglass has seeing this aircraft for quite a while now, in New Mexico.
