And when the wings swing in tight to the body— they go... supersonic. This is one of the bombers that kept Qadaffi quiet for years after Reagan attacked him for his minions attack on a German venue filled with US personnel. Two of his children killed and he had heat burns. This was conventional weapons.

They of course are/were nuclear capable. Wonder if we could rebuild something of this sort, but made out of composite carbon body. The B-2 being stealth... not supersonic.

No; those were F-111s (Aardvarks).
