  • The Northrop Grumman B-21 Raider is the Air Force's new stealth bomber. Slated to begin flight tests in 2023, the secretive aircraft was revealed to the public in December 2022. Capable of nuclear and conventional missions, the Air Force plans to use the B-21 to replace an aging bomber force over the coming decades.
    "The B-21 looks very similar to the B-2 because the fundamentals of stealth and long-range penetrating air are built around the concept of a flying wing," said Doug Young, vice president and general manager, strike division at Northrop Grumman. "And that even goes back to the YB-49 jet when Jack Northrop actually created some of the first flying wings.'
    Watch the video above to find out more about the new high-tech stealth bomber slated to fly in 2023.

    I work as a machinist in the aerospace industry. At my previous employer I made a handful of different part numbers for the new B-21, mostly titanium. We were told we got a contract for a new aircraft, they speculated a new bomber but we were told nothing else. So for a few years we started producing these parts, mostly on 5-axis milling centers. An insane amount of time, effort, money and tooling went into just what we produced. And to know that these aircraft consist of thousands of complex individual parts, that all require a high level of precision, really is a testament to the human spirit to create. Its amazing. Now I can say with certainty that the aircraft shown in this video has a few parts that I manufactured and inspected with my own hands. Pretty cool feeling to see it complete because when you’re manufacturing individual parts, they feel inconsequential. Just “widgets” for “who knows what.” Well here it is. Very proud to be apart of it, even with my role being small and relatively insignificant.

      @@tonedcorster7631 Yeah there’s just so much to these aircraft. To have the capacity to manufacture every single component on top of the actual assembly of aircraft, you’d need needs millions of square feet of shop space. Almost all of the precision machining operations of each part are done by suppliers. Like 99%. I currently work for a major aerospace company and that’s how it’s done there.

    You have to think about support as much as capability in order to have an effective weapons system. Certainly the Air Force and the U.S. military in general must realize that the Achilles heel is our support system. Currently all of our B-2 bombers are stationed at a base with only 1 runway, which at the present time is closed due to a disabled B-2 on the runway. When poor decisions like this are made, it's only a matter of time before our enemies will go for the weakest link to remove that asset from the force. The single runway is only 1 example. When your aircraft or tanks require highly technical support and parts, only 1 or a few suppliers can support you, and only a few items or places need to be damaged, or hacked, to remove that weapons system from the game. The real question is why do we do this? Do the people making these decisions have our best interests in mind?

    Is it even technically possible to build a foundation strategic bomber with the same flexibility, dependability and, most importantly, the DURABILITY of our B-52? Does the fact that this "key" sub-sonic bomber is unable to fly in the rain, heat or humidity (due to its thermoplastic skin) disturb anyone? .

      Those were problems the B-21 was meant to address, and you can send 100 B-52’s into China but they’d all get shot down, so what’s the point if they can’t reach their targets?

    The B21 raider can already be easily detected by China... It can be found inside the hangar labelled "B21 Raider".

      The b-21 is under budget and cheaper then the b-2. At least by estimations.

    This is one huge sales pitch for the Military Industrial Complex. Expect massive delays and cost over runs that will make your head spin. The more you feed the Military Monster money the hungrier it gets.

      Actually this program has gone alot smoother so far than just about any other acquisition in recent memory. Probably because the B-2 and RQ-170 took off alot of the edge in developing these systems.
