I'm guessing they made the blow like this is because of the new hull design tapers outward. It reducing drag already. So no need to make the same old protruding bow design?
Nice 3D model, Avery. It going to came with a Seahawk too?

Maybe they plan on ramming with that bow? Who knows what might be inside it. Big models are sweet! Maybe, at that size, aluminum flashing could be used for the hull. Of course, that would be anathema to paper modeling.
