they aren't super sonic are they?
No
But they don't need to be
They have long range and good cruising speed
Payload capacity is about 60k i think
I believe my dad helped design the two 30k pound bombs that it could carry
idk I think the one shot down in ('63?) would argue that it could use it
I'm just saying, supersonic shit would be cool
No
No B-2 spirit was ever shot down
So far, only one was lost
tho
it blew up on landing i think
maybe takeoff
what am I thinkin of then?
1.4 billion
dollars
idk
oh I'm thinking of the U-2
woops
yeah
RIP b-2s tho
B-21s will replace them
Each B-2 was like 1.4 billion dollars
oh I think I heard about that a while back
that's like 22 billion in today's money if I remember, no?
$2,281,712,149.53
High subsonic
It crashed in bad weather.
@Heyguy2033
That’s so insane
That your dad flew B-2s
Would be out of a select group of only around a hundred.
mhm
He was a test pilot for them as well
I'd think takeoff would be easy. Because, in essence, it's a giant wing. But landing? <:CursedEmoji:763140778770825247>
Why would landing be hard-
landing is always harder for all planes
but this would be much easier for this
Huh
40 hours of fuel burned, and up to 60k pounds of bombs gone
