Lethal power .. whew!

B-1B LANCER Mission

Carrying the largest payload of both guided and unguided weapons in the Air Force inventory, the multi-mission B-1 is the backbone of America's long-range bomber force. It can rapidly deliver massive quantities of precision and non-precision weapons against any adversary, anywhere in the world, at any time.

=======================================================

Ya know for years, I heard about the B1 Bomber .. B1 Bob (Dornan) and his fight, etc. .. and I was in a lot more frantic lifestyle the last 5 years, but this is the first time I've really seen it. It is SO impressive.

It is very impressive to see flying. It is even more impressive to watch as it takes off, with full afterburners, at nighttime; or on a low-level, high-speed bomb run.

Of course, watching the B-2A Spirit just sitting on the tarmac, let alone flying, is quite impressive.

Or, an oldie but goodie, the venerable, and still quite impressive B-52H Stratofortress, also known as the "BUFF" (which stands for "Big Ugly Fat F...ellow".
