Air Force may have to adopt a “no bomber†strategy as B-1’s age out

As the B-1B fleet nears retirement and the B-21 Raider seems further and further away from becoming a frontline reality, the Air Force may have to come up with a new bomber strategy for standoff operations.
With B-1 fleets currently running ragged with little to no spare parts, it’s a matter of time before the “Bones†can no longer take to the skies.
This, of course, is a real problem because its replacement, the B-21, is still grounded to the blueprint and build stage.
