Hi,
Obviously stealth aircraft tend to either be tailless, or have twin tail fins which are canted inwards or outwards.
Single vertical tails are generally much less stealthy. But they are lighter than twin vertical stabilisers.
What about a single tail but canted to one side, evenly across the lateral COG?
Assuming FBW controls etc, what are the aerodynamic issues surrounding this idea?
