The Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit is a multi-role stealth heavy bomber, capable of deploying both conventional and nuclear weapons. It is operated exclusively by the United States Air Force. Its development was a milestone in the modernization program of the U.S. Department of Defense. The B-2's stealth technology is intended to aid the aircraft's penetration role in order to survive extremely dense anti-aircraft defenses otherwise considered impenetrable by combat aircraft.
The blending of low-observable technologies with high aerodynamic efficiency and large payload gives the B-2 significant advantages over previous bombers. Its range is approximately 6,000 nautical miles (11,100 km) without refueling. Also, its low-observation ability provides the B-2 greater freedom of action at high altitudes, thus increasing its range and giving a better field of view for the aircraft's sensors. With its GPS Aided Targeting System (GATS) combined with GPS-aided bombs such as Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM), it can use its passive electronically scanned array APQ-181 radar to correct GPS errors of targets and gain much better than laser-guided weapon accuracy with "dumb" gravity bombs with a GPS-aided "smart" guidance tail kit attached. It can bomb 16 targets in a single pass when equipped with 1,000 or 2,000-pound bombs, or as many as 80 when carrying 500-lb bombs.
The B-2's stealth comes from a combination of reduced acoustic, infrared, visual and radar signatures, making it difficult for defenses to detect, track and engage. Many aspects of the low-observability process remain classified; however, the B-2's composite materials, special coatings and flying wing design contribute to its stealth abilities. The B-2 uses radar absorbent material and coatings, that have required climate-controlled hangars for maintenance

Magnetized Stealth wings,small Stealth wings that are highly magnetized against each other with high energy wings and lower wings are half size of upper;But both are highly magnetized and much less vibration,of launch wing drag.Creating less Stealth wing vibration.
Nice or sexual .The Luxury Woman Of the Millenium....One of a kind outfits and personality!!! Cuz i am hot and willing to fulfill your wishes. After all life is short, we have to make it good and pick as much fun as we can. come visit me at FriendlyFlirts * COM my user-id there is Savannah-qfhn chat soon on cam :) qqzkv
...something like a "callipigia"
Looks like terrorist shot that B2 down. The air force is planning to retire those since its out of date and easy to shot down with russian 1960's radar
ohhh just shut the fuck up.
is this aircraft capable of self defense in aerial combat?
ECM Maybe...
Although I did hear of a modified B-1 that carries AMRAAMs. Supposedly, a F-22 (or AWACS?) sends target information to the B-1, then whoosh, 10 AIM-120s off the rails.
