Setting aside some of the B-1B’s minor issues,

Next to Stealth and F-22 is one of the coolest Military Jet’s to be produced, similar to a Great White Shark: big, bad and fast.

The episode with Saddam during the fall of Baghdad, when the B-1's almost got Saddam and his boys with all their thugs in a west Baghdad parking lot, made a useful point to all sorts of unpleasant people all over the world.

If an American with a cell phone can see your sorry ass, North American Rockwell and Raytheon are only seconds away.

You got to love a Heavy bomber that can out-run a concorde.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I think the B-1 Lancer is one of the few "mainstream" US milcraft to still use variable geometry (I still miss the beautiful lines of the F-14).

And, like with threads about beautiful women, beautiful craft need pics:
