Interesting analysis on the strategic importance of bombers! It's crucial to understand the balance of power and deterrence in modern warfare.

Nearly but a trillion dollars is not enough and when you compare the percentage of GDP from the Cold war to today it is laughable. The US has cut the US military budget for decades. The is asking the military to do far more and handle interest all over the world but people are mistaken about the military. Inflation alone means the US military once again got a budget cut this year and last.

Using cargo aircraft as bombers only makes them targets. Those planes are also used for Aeromedical Evacuation missions. No distinguishing markings either.

More cheap labor.

The bottleneck is not only the bombers themselves, but how many precision-guided missiles/ munitions can the US produce in a certain period of time? A rapid dragon system pallet can drop up to 45 missiles (the size of the deployment boxes is configurable and ranges from 4 to 45 AGM-158B JASSM-ER (extended range) cruise missiles, according to Wiki); that will always be quite a chunk of the total inventory for any expensive weapon.

And that’s an amazing thing because when we calculate our odds of winning (which is usually very high) we don’t include our most valuable player. And when push comes to shove..... well, let’s just say our enemies don’t want to be in that situation.

Yes double the order and keep older jets flying , build also a fleet of less technical jets and bombers some high tech some low tech . Both is a safer way to go .

have a look around for the footage of a US heavy lift air transport air launching a minuteman ICBM by parachute...thats impressive!

Any stealth bomber would be SUBsonic. I hear you saying that supersonic versus subsonic is not a problem ?

Was not expecting those sweet Batman logos on the back of the plane!!! Also, Team America >>> F____ yeaaaaaah!

The B1B's efficacy and future may be debatable, but there has never been, nor could there ever be, a more beautiful aircraft.

A huge problem is the government thinks there's unlimited funding and that a kid cooking hamburgers can pay 75% of their money to taxes and doesn't have gas to put in their car or can't afford a tire

Seems we only put in minimum effort then leave early in a conflict losing any gain.

Not all of the B-21 need to be fully stealthy. It would save money on maintaining the coatings.

Variety is more often than not the answer... everything.

It’s becoming increasingly clear Deckard after decade that the US government, US military, and US taxpayer would benefit greatly at hiring military contractors that can produce highly capable systems at very cheap expense.

In order to buy more weapons taxes would have to go up in the US which is always unpopular. A lot of folks do not realize the US tax rates previous generations paid to cover war-times. The tax rate for WW1 was 77% and the tax rate during WW2 rose to 94% and remained at 91% for nearly two decades-until 1964. The US coasted for 20 years financially and then just started pilling on National Debt to cover our bills. So, if you want more military toys, then you should be open to raising taxes to pay for them.

300 bombers? Sounds like the start of an action movie! But seriously, great breakdown of the strategic necessity. Biden should take notes!

Idk about it, it's just a scaled down generic B2! I think the B2 looks way better! I thought that black was used cuz it was stealth coating! The white or whatever color it is doesn't look good on the 21

In the middle 70's we (AF) had to take up a collection to buy paint to "freshen" the hospital for its inspection by the command. When you make $180/2 weeks, $20 was a lot! Then we worked extra hours doing the painting. What a time!

The USAF plans for a fleet of 100 B-21 bombers. The unit cost of one of the bombers was contractually set at $550 million in the original 2015 contract, in current dollars, each B-21 must come in under $778 million. The B-21 is slower with a max speed of only MACH 0.8 opposed to MACH 0.95 for the B-2, has a 25% less payload: 30,000 lbs vs 40,000 for the B-2 and a much shorter range of only 2,500 miles compared to the incredible 6,900 miles of the B-2. So how is it better and why does it rate such a high price tag? Well, the B-21 is a 6th generation aircraft with superior stealth but with huge costs in performance of everything else. Corruption. Politics.

China and Russia still use old technology, at this point we are just spending a ton of money for crew survival but death is apart of war so i personally don't think we need to spend that much when we can can make old stuff that's still better then Russia or China equipment

The B2 and B21 are shaped like a stingray

is the B-21 Raiders %100. a stealth plane ? No any radar will detect it

No, what we have now are far more capable than our adversaries.

I like the other narrator better

The B21 is too small that's why they need so many.

Just conjecturing here, but when the leader of a nation is both well along the path to senile dementia, AND profoundly enmeshed in corrupt personal indebtedness to the primary likely adversaries of that nation, the likelihood of a focused purposeful commitment to military readiness looks a lot like our withdrawal from Afghanistan.

It doesn’t look scary enough. It should be more pointy in the front, or have the flying tigers shark teeth in the front. This thing looks like a friendly ghost.👻

Buff ain't going no where.. it is literally the go to bomber for almost every mission. B1 and B2 is our strike aircraft and with the B1 being the only supersonic aircraft, I seriously doubt it will go anywhere. Look at the A-10, the air force is always looking at new and shiny and disregarding functionality. The F-35 was supposed to replace the A-10, it was even said that it could out preform the A-10 and got smacked down hard because it was over sold and under preformed.

So if the US needs anywhere from 225 - 300 stealth bombers right now, we are talking about insane costs that are NOT possible, period! The B12 has a current, inflation-adjusted average procurement unit cost of $692 million, meaning that it translates to a total cost of upwards of $155.7 - $207.0 TRILLION if these unit costs do not increase over time. These costs also assume no losses of any bombers to the fleet and excludes maintenance and upgrade costs, the costs of weapons systems and the ordinance they will use, and any operational costs. Are you military leaders in the USAF specifically - and the Pentagon generally - so out of touch with reality that you cannot see that ONE weapons platform will consume almost all of the already substantial annual military budget if you get what you want? And exactly how is the current American economy supposed to support this fantasy, where we literally now have deficit spending of nearly $1 TRILLION every 100 days (courtesy the Federal Reserve monetizing our debt and both Congress' and the Executive branch's horrible fiscal policy, which is creating massive inflationary pressure for the rest of the economy), and with interest payments on the national debt alone now approaching an unacceptable $1 TRILLION annually. Do you military strategists realize that there are also strategic advantages to using lower cost yet easily replaceable military assets? Do you military thinkers ever consider economic reality when military planning is involved? Or are all of the flag officers economic illiterates who can't figure out that if you have no economy - or treasure to spend - then you have no weapons! PS Spare me the jobs argument, as the government took money from the private economy to make something that has no real utilitarian value outside of war, and it does so very inefficiently without ever having to suffer the economic consequences of failure or bad allocation of limited resources, at least until the economy itself collapses. If that was true otherwise the Soviet Union would never have failed!
