The appearance of the US new generation invisible bomber will become the core of the r

(Washington Composite Electric) The new generation invisible bomber that has developed for seven years in the United States has finally unveiled the mystery.This remote bomber can carry conventional weapons and nuclear bombs, which is regarded by the United States as the most important air strategic deterrent force in the next decades, and will become one of the core elements of the United States against the rise of Chinese military.

Natural Enterprise Northrop Grumman held a promotional ceremony in a manufacturing plant in California on Friday (December 2).(Raider) Invisible bomber.

B-21 is similar to the current B-2 in service. It is designed with "flying wing". Therefore, it has long-range flight and air refueling functions. It can carry conventional weapons and nuclear bomb global flight.

Each cost is about $ 750 million in US $ 70 million.

B-21 can fly nearly 10,000 kilometers without refueling, go deep into the enemy to crack down on the target, and avoid the detection of the cutting-edge air defense system.This fighter is the first part of the US nuclear deterrent power of $ 1 trillion, which also includes the construction of a new nuclear submarine and land -based missiles.

B-21 each cost is about US $ 750 million (about S $ 1.014 billion), and six B-21 are currently in different assembly stages.The US Air Force plans to purchase at least 100 B-21 to replace B-1 and B-2 bombers.The B-21 is expected to test flight for the first time next year, from 2026 to 2027, and reached preliminary combat capabilities in 2030.

U.S. Defense Minister Austin said at the ceremony: "B-21 is the first strategic bomber of (the United States) for more than 30 years, which reflects the continuous advantages of the United States in creating and innovating."

The technical details of

B-21 are still confidential. According to Austin, the argumentation and durability, without any long-range bomber compared to B-21.

Nonroap Gluman said that B-21 is the first sixth-generation fighter in the world because it can connect with other aircraft and can easily integrate future weapons into its system.Yang En, general manager of the company's aviation system department, said that B-21 uses more durable invisible low-energy visibility surface materials. The maintenance is less and the operating cost and stop time are minimized.

Nelson, a researcher at the Brookings Society of the American Think Tank, pointed out that the open system of B-21 allows it to upgrade software and be eliminated so quickly. It can also be called "real modernization".Weapons can also launch long -range and short -range missiles, which will become an important member of the US sea, land, and air -to -air three -in -one strategic nuclear forces.

The appearance ceremony on Friday did not mention the driverless function of B-21, but the U.S. Air Force spokesman Stek said in an interview that it has not yet decided whether to let the B-21 have no pilot situation.Flying.
