The B-21 Raider Bomber Has 'No Margin for Error'

Why the B-21 Raider Is So Important to the U.S. Air Force: The Northrop Grumman B-21 Raider, the U.S. Air Force’s next-generation stealth bomber, is making significant progress in testing and has moved into low-rate initial production. The Raider is expected to replace the aging B-1B Lancer and B-2 Spirit, with at least 100 bombers planned, though some analysts suggest 200 may be needed to counter growing threats from China and Russia.

-Designed for digital efficiency and future adaptability, the B-21 features open systems architecture for rapid upgrades.

-Bases like Ellsworth, Whiteman, and Dyess are preparing to host the new bombers as they become operational later this decade.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Is this aircraft too sophisticated for maintainers to keep in the air? :shrug:

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

How many long-distance drones can be bought for the price of one aircraft?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
