This weekend I finished the Schwalbe, and the Stormbird need just the cockpit and some small actuators and antenae.

You can see the main difference between them: The Schwalbe used two Jumo004 engines (like the White 8) and the actual Stormbirds uses two GE J85 engines, smaller, lighter and more powerfull (White 3).
You could imagine that it means that the present day plane is faster, but the wings weren't designed to hold at this speed, so the pilots know to never let it go.
