The U.S. Air Force has released a new photorealistic image of the B-21 Raider, showing the long-range stealth bomber taking off from Edwards Air Force Base, California, where it will someday be tested before taking on worldwide operations.
The service on Tuesday posted the photo of the Raider, which sports a squat, sleeker profile than its larger cousin, the B-2 Spirit. Both bombers are made by Northrop Grumman.
Officials have said first deliveries should begin in the mid-2020s, but have been careful not to broadcast too many other details in order to protect details about the B-21's classified technology. The photos, however, give the public a glimpse of what the future bomber will look like.
