That's a miracle in the messy world of military hardware procurement.

A key lawmaker overseeing Pentagon spending says the new B-21 Raider bomber is a military procurement success story.

The B-21 will replace the B-1 and B-2 bombers starting in the late 2020s.
The first B-21 bomber is scheduled to take flight in 2022.
The U.S. Air Force’s forthcoming B-21 Raider bomber isn’t only on budget—it’s also (mostly) on time. That might as well be a miracle in the messy world of military hardware procurement.

The B-21 Raider is the Air Force’s next strategic bomber. The bomber, which outwardly resembles the B-2 Spirit stealth bomber, will replace both the B-1 Lancer and B-2 Spirit. The B-21 will be a dual capable bomber, which means it can carry either nuclear or conventional weapons. The Air Force plans to buy at least 100 of the planes for a maximum of $665 million.
