The B-2 Spirit bomber, also known as the Stealth Bomber, is a highly advanced strategic aircraft developed by Northrop Grumman for the United States Air Force. Designed for stealth and long-range missions, it features a distinctive flying wing design that minimizes radar detection. Capable of carrying both conventional and nuclear weapons, the B-2 can penetrate heavily defended enemy airspace with minimal risk of detection. First entering service in 1997, the bomber has a range of over 6,000 nautical miles without refueling and is powered by four General Electric F118-GE-100 engines. Its radar-absorbing materials and low observable technologies make it one of the most survivable aircraft in the U.S. arsenal. With a crew of two and a payload capacity of up to 40,000 pounds, the B-2 plays a key role in strategic deterrence and precision strike missions. Despite its high operational cost, its effectiveness and stealth make it an invaluable asset.
