With older software, with shittier computers, thats why the F-117 was so polygonal. It looked like a PS1 game.

The noses aren't entirely rounded. Instead of looking at it as a vector break it into thousands, millions, billions of slices. The slices are called facets.
Same way pixels, at a distance, look like a curved line when in fact they're made up of squares.
