As long as it won't cost as much as the B-2...

Expensive or not, It would be nice to see an artist's impression photo of this one !

The quest to the ultimate bird is starting again. The ultimate bird is tasked with a difficult mission even before the first blueprints are out. The difficult mission, if not impossible, will be replacing the last B52s, the B1s and the B2s. The challenge is daunting but interesting.

Save our money: combine this with the Marines' Hot Eagle project and bam, two missions knocked out with one stone: rapid international ground force deployment and a strategic responder based anywhere in the world capable of any target in the world in under three hours.



....man I'm starting to sound all military industrial and stuff, lol
