Stealth Bomber Article: The virtually invisible B-2 Stealth Bomber was created as a multi-role bomber that is capable of delivering nuclear and conventional munitions. This incredible aircraft is owned and operated exclusively by the United States Air Force. Just like her sister aircrafts, the B-52 Stratofortress and the B-1 Lancer, the B-2 Stealth Bomber can change or cancel targets while in flight. The weapon assigned to a specific target can also be change as well as the timing of the attack. Additionally, the route of the target can be changed while in flight. But only the B-2 Stealth Bomber has the ability to penetrate an enemy’s sophisticated defense and attack its most heavily defended targets without even being spotted. The B-2 gets it stealth from a combination of reduced acoustic, infrared, visual and radar signatures. This ultimately makes it difficult for defenses to detect, attack or even track the B-2. As you can imagine many aspects of how the stealth bombers are made are highly classified. What is known is the B-2 uses radar absorbent material and coating that requires a climate controlled hanger for any maintenance. The B-2 Stealth bomber has been used in three different campaigns, its first being the Kosovo War in 1999. After that, it was used in Afghanistan in Operation Enduring Freedom and in Iraq for Operation Iraqi Freedom and has been used for various other missions since. Only 21 B-2 Stealth Bombers exist due to the fact that it costs $2.1 billion to build just one. If you would like to see a B-2 Stealth bomber in person you can see one at the National Museum of the United States. Please keep in mind they are never kept their permanently because they are needed for missions. This absolutely one of a kind aircraft is 17 feet tall, with a wingspan of 172 feet. Its empty weight is 158,000 pounds and its max takeoff weight is 376,000 pounds. It can reach speeds of 470 miles per hour and has a service ceiling of 50,000 feet.
