Yes, pretty much. That he managed to crash it into the only bit of ground not covered with some of the quarter million or so spectators was pretty amazing luck.

The B2, a flying wing configuration, utterly relies on a nest of computers to fly. Otherwise it would be uncontrollable.
Like the Eurofighter it's an inherently unstable aircraft and needs a mind of it's own.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the Raptor have a computer brain?
I'm also with the Grey Haired One in wishing for a color-changing 'smart' laser sight. While I put in a red dot sight on a HUD I made awhile back, it was sort of a hack and only helps a little with the accuracy problem.
