The B-21 Raider carries more automation than any bomber before it, and the Air Force has now confirmed it will still fly with two...
Assume the H-20 clears every engineering hurdle tomorrow. It would still depend on a refueling fleet of roughly 35 aircraft, none carrying the high-flow...
Modern American weapons programs have a reputation: the Ford carrier ran billions over, the Zumwalt was cut from 32 ships to three, the F-35...
The B-21 Raider may be the most advanced bomber ever built — but at $700 million apiece, this piece argues the Air Force's planned...

The Pentagon is retiring two bombers decades younger than the B-52 while rebuilding the old giant to fly for another generation. Behind that inversion...
China's H-20 stealth bomber has been talked about for roughly a decade. And yet, the stealth warplane has never flown in public.
Two warplanes, sixty years apart, built on the same impossible promise: one airframe that could be both fighter and bomber. America escaped the trap...
