America’s new stealth B-21 Raider takes next step with second bomber’s first flight
Fox News
The second B-21 Raider bomber completed its first flight in California, accelerating Air Force testing of America's new stealth aircraft designed for nuclear missions.
The B-21, built by Northrop Grumman, is the world’s first sixth-generation aircraft and will be capable of carrying both nuclear and conventional weapons. Its stealth design is intended to penetrate deep into enemy territory and operate against increasingly advanced air defenses being fielded by China, Russia and other adversaries.
The new bomber follows in the lineage of the Cold War-era B-52 Stratofortress, the supersonic B-1 Lancer and the radar-evading B-2 Spirit.
