There are guys hand making essentially entire B17 and B24 from hand, takes years, but thats how fast we produce B-2 and similar so thats “OK”. In the old days you increased production speed by The B-2 bomber is capable of carrying out both conventional and nuclear strikes and makes up a key component of the U.S. strategic bomber fleet. The Air Force plans to incrementally replace its B-1 and B-2 fleets with the newly unveiled B-21 Raider. The B-21 Raider is a stealth bomber with a similar flying-wing shape as the B-2 Spirit. The B-17G was over 70 feet long, featured a 103-foot wingspan, and was produced with four Wright R-1820-7 engines, each providing over 1,200 horsepower. This allowed the variant to take off with a maximum takeoff weight of 65,500 pounds. It also had a range of 2,000 miles and a typical cruise speed of 158 knots. The Boeing B-29 Superfortress is the iconic bomber aircraft that ended World War II. Some are actually still airworthy but how many B-29 are still flying? We'll take a look and tell their story. Able to fly higher and faster than the enemy, the Boeing B-29 proved to be a very capable and effective bomber during World War II and the Korean War.
The U.S. Air Force recently dispatched three B-2 bombers to Iceland.; These planes are part of a regular bomber rotation to Europe, but it's the first time the service has based such bombers in
The U.S. Air Force operates a fleet of 20 deployed B-2 bombers and 46 deployed B-52 bombers. The B-2 bombers can carry 16 gravity bombs, while the B-52 bombers carry 20 cruise missiles, each equipped with one warhead. The F-15 and F-16 fighter aircrafts are dual-capable and can carry the B61 gravity bomb.
Just last week, the Air Force began retiring the first 17 of their B-1B Lancer bombers. The Air Force also has plans to slowly reduce the number of B-2 Spirits in service as well, relying instead
While there’s never been complete confirmation how many the United States has in its arsenal, the number is at least 20+. That includes at least one brand new next generation B-21. A B-2 stealth bomber flew over the Rose Bowl for the Alabama/Michigan game.

Another component of the slate of upgrades is the Radar Aided Targeting System, which Northrop Grumman said would allow the B-2 to fully use the B-61 mod 12 nuclear bomb and complete the bomber
