Now that all the development and initial production costs have been incurred, watch the production numbers continue to plummet, as it becomes “too expensive”.

This is how the US taxpayer continues to get screwed by the MIC.

It’s my understanding that even if ground radar, with potentially unlimited antenna reception, is able to detect an aircraft the limiting factor becomes the onboard radar of SAM or Air to Air missles. They may know we’re up there but if they can’t get a lock there’s little risk of intercept.

US Air Force's New B-21 Reportedly Has the Radar Profile of an Insect

It also floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.

It has the heat signature of a very large aircraft. So, there’s that.
