Something about the external geometry, and possibly some sort of radar-absorptive coating, by the looks of it.

AN6K Roc LRNSAOverview:
In the ever expanding battlefields faced on NS-Earth, the need for the ability to transport large numbers of troops and equipment over long distances has always been seen as a must. Sadly this has always been a slow task, aircraft can only carry a limited number of troops, and few can carry more than one or two pieces of heavy equipment and all require multiple refuelings to reach the farthest battlefields, this means that the use of ships is a must Unfortunately Transport vessels can take months to reach a combat zone, which places limits as to a nation's response to the rapidly changing modern day battlefield. In order to alleviate this problem, and provide a means to rapidly transport large numbers of troops and equipment world wide, Polaris Aerospace started The LRNSA Project.(Long Range Nuclear Strategic Airlifter). Based on earlier design studies such as the Lockheed CL-1201, the ultimate result of the project was the Model AN6K "Roc".
The AN6K is a massive super heavy transport, and is able to deliver approximately 2000 metric tons of cargo anywhere in the world. The AN6K is powered by 4 massive combined Nuclear-Conventional turbofan engines. The craft uses conventional jet fuel when taking off, and once at altitude switches the engines from conventional operation to nuclear power. The use of nuclear power while cruising means that the cruising range of the aircraft is effectively limited only by on board consumable supplies.
Design:
The AN6K's primary identifying feature, other than its massive size, is its unique tail-less blended wing-body design. The design allows for both increased lift and decreased drag resulting in a superior lift to drag to ratio compared to a conventional layout. The design also allows for increased interior volume and increased fuel efficiency when the engines are running on conventional jet fuel.
Crew:
The flight deck of the AN6K is manned by a crew of 12. The flight crew consists of the Pilot/Commander, Co-pilot, 4 Flight Engineers, Navigator, Radio Operator and 4 Defensive Systems Operators.In addition to the flight crew, the nuclear propulsion of the AN6K requires an additional 4 Reactor Operators seated in a control room just forwards of the reactor compartment. Due to the vast distances and thus long mission times, accommodations are also provided for 2 backup crews, giving the AN6K a total flight crew of 48. In addition to the flight crews, additional crew members such as Loadmasters are also carried.
Payload:
The primary mission of the AN6K is as a strategic airlifter. To fulfill this task, the aircraft is built to carry a whopping two thousands metric tons of cargo. The main cargo bay of the AN6K stretches 74 meters long, 4 and a half meters high and is over 20 meters across. The aft cargo bay is around half as big, only stretching for roughly 35 meters. The Aft and forward Cargo bays are separated by the craft's main reactor, however two smaller cargo bays measuring 16m x 4 meters wide x 4 meters tall connect the two main bays. Combined these holds provide over 10,000 cubic meters worth of cargo space on the main cargo deck alone. In addition the main cargo deck there are loads of other places to put stuff....
2 metric tons of equipment is useless if you don't have the manpower to use it, as such the AN6K has provisions to carry over x passengers.
Defensive Systems:
lulzy-radars comparable to that of an AWACS. Shitloads of AAMs, Chaff, Flares, possibly a few autocannons because I ran out of fucks when I made my Orion.
Flight Deck:
I heard you liek glass cockpits
Reactor:
Powered by the Atom, becuase SCIENCE!
Propulsion:
Technically itt's a fucking Hybrid so pro-environment hippies can suck it.
Length:160 Meters
Height: 17.6 Meters (45.7 Meters to Tail)
Wingspan: 350 Meters
Power: 1 x Type AR-214 2,000 Megawatt Reactor
Propulsion: 4 x NT-214 Turbofans ( 556000 kN of thrust each)
Empty Mass: ~3000 Metric Tons
Payload: 2000 Metric tons
Flight Crew: 48
A few notes:
Yes I realize my numbers differ from the CL-1201. In particular My payload is twice what Lockheed planned for and my mass is much lower. My main excuse for this is that I'm dumping the 182 STOL engines and everything associated with them. Given the combined thrust of those engines is 15 million lbs, this gives just over 82,000 lbs of thrust per engine, roughly comparable to the A380's GP7000. That engine weighs 6.7 Tons, so 182 of them would weigh just under 1,220 tons not including mountings and fuel. I'm making the baseless and likely wrong (But this is a not serious NS-design so who cares) assumption I can use that extra mass for cargo. Of course this will dramatically increase the length of the runways required to operate it, but any operators will just have to suck it up. (What's that, the nation you're fling to doesn't have a runway the length of California? Tough luck maybe you should have realized how impractical it was before you bought the thing.
