I don't believe the two came from the same design team - the global hawk came from the teledyne ryan design/engineering folks LONG before the merger with Northrop.... I was involved with the project way back then and know this for a fact. Airframe and stealthwise they have NOTHING in common.... The global hawk mission control design was more complicated than the airplane and sensors IMHO... Don't get me wrong - the Global Hawk is one of my favorite aircraft of all times and was quite ahead of it's time when it first flew.
