200 B-52’s ?


Unfortunately, we signed a treaty with Moscow, decades ago, the 76 B-52s in service now, are the limit. There are 12 more sitting in the AZ bone yard, but the only way they can be put back in service, is if one of the existing ones is taken out. A fire on one at Barksdale caused it to be replaced, just this year, by a bone yard B-52, as it was cheaper to restore it, than to repair the damaged one.

Yeah, I know I was dreaming with that one.
