Fox News
Pentagon officials green lit manufacturing Northrop Grumman's latest stealth bomber, the B-21 Raider, which can be outfitted with nuclear and conventional weapons.
Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
"One of the key attributes of this program has been designing for production from start – and at scale – to provide a credible deterrent to adversaries," he said. "If you don’t produce and field warfighters at scale, the capability doesn’t really matter." Story tips and can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
The B-21 will be part of the Air Force, which will begin fielding a fleet of a minimum of 100 B-21 Raiders, the first of which will go into service by 2027.
