The drag-rudders on the B-2 really increase its visibility at distance.
When they're retracted the plane is very difficult to see when it's low at eye level.. Opened, it's easy to see.
It also increases its radar signature. I've heard that it also varies the thrust of the engines for yawing when on a stealth mission.
