Amazingly, you can’t hear it until it is literally immediately over your head.

I had this happen while walking to an air show. The bomber was less than 200-300 feet over my head, yet, since I was walking to the stands, I didn’t begin to think it was there and swinging past early. It made little noise, even then.

I looked up to see what it was and it was a perfect view from directly below.

Amazing!

Can the B21 carry one of the MOPs? Can it carry 2, like the B2?

The B-21 will surpass it.

Could we ramp up assembly lines and make some new ones. Say 40 more? Are we even capable of this?

All B-2 Spirit stealth bombers were manufactured between 1988 and 2000. The first B-2 was publicly displayed in November 1988, and production continued until the year 2000. In total, 21 aircraft were produced: 20 operational bombers and one experimental plane. The first flight of a B-2 occurred on July 17, 1989, and the first operational aircraft was delivered to Whiteman Air Force Base in December 1993.
