It's not 'breaking the sound barrier'. B2's are not supersonic aircraft. It can do about Mach 0.95 flat out although its usual cruising speed is about the same as a 747. This is 'transsonic', not supersonic.
You can get a Prandtl-Glauert singularity at subsonic velocities under the right conditions (high humidity, high g or large angle of attack).

Such effects have been seen around my Rover 75, but only in the mornings after a vindaloo.
Looks like the bird that circles round my house and regularly shits on my windows.
Nah, it's a metallic sort of dolphin thing that can float and fart at the same time.
Won't be very Stealthy if it goes through the Sound Barrier.... BOOM!!!
first glance, i thought that was a scene from 80s sci-fi film, 'Flight of the Navigator'
it's a thing that kills people - so fucking what if it's a nice pic
