please tell me we aren’t using the B-2 for something an F-15 or F-18 can do?

Waste more money. 3 wars = USA bankruptcy.
This is so much like how Rome failed. Let invaders (illegals) flood in, insane corruption, bancrupt the country, have the Roman Army off fighting useless wars.
The corrupt Roman leadership had bread and circuses to fool the population aka food stamps and TV. The idiots who watch TV enable hussein.

C’mon, these guys have been sitting and playing cards in the hangar for a long time. They need to blow the dust off those wings once and a while.

Hero pilots? They would be heroes if they had refused the mission.

B-2’s have “facilities” on them. Imagine the poor guy that has to ferry Warthogs to Iraq from Idaho.
To: GeronL
The B-2 is going in when the SAM sites are still active to get rid of same. An F15 or F18 can’t do that with impunity. A stealth aircraft can. F117’s could have been used if we still had them in the inventory AND they had a base to fly from. But - we retired them so the only stealth bomber we have is the B2.
To: Fennie
Very impressive. In P-3s, a twelve hour mission is outside the norm, and that’s with three pilots, two flight engineers, and two navigators. Did a 13.2 once because the PPC wanted to set a record. He got an ass-chewing instead. Of course, the B-2 is completely pre- and post-flighted by another crew. In P-3s you do your own 4 hour preflight and 2 hour postflight.
To: montag813
Skilled pilots, brave pilots, yes. Hero Pilots? Seems to diminish the heroic efforts of pilots past.
