I hope it is simple and easy to manufacture.

We do not need a 2 billion dollar bird. Now I know that was Congress fault for not building the original 120ish B-2's.

We only have what 60 something B-1's left? And the Buffs are getting way to long in the tooth.

We need quantity IMHO on this one.

We need a bunch of remotely piloted craft, each with a moderate payload, (relatively) cheap to build.

Seat the “pilots” in some high flying AWACS out of “theatre” range,

and blow up some ragheads.

Cut costs and increase quantity by building in China.
