Good Lord, B61’s?????

I thought for sure those would be phased out by now. They look like they were designed by Buck Rogers...

They looked dated and antiquated when we practiced loading them back in the 1970’s...

That info came from the link provided by FReeper 'Rob the Ugly Dude' (which was Wikipedia), so make of that what you will.

A B61 variant (dash 11) is still around, it seems - it was the various warheads which have been retired (W81, W84, W85) - the current version uses the W80 warhead{http://nuclearweaponarchive.org/Usa/Weapons/B61.html}.
