  • For years now, the Air Force has been ordering a minimum of 100 B-21 Raiders, at a rate of 10 jets per year to replace its oldest bombers. It will be lucky if it can declare its first squadron operational by 2027. Meanwhile, multiple heads of the Air Force Global Strike Command, along with other observers, have suggested that the U.S. really needs more stealth B-21s.
    Most recently, STRATCOM boss Gen. Anthony J. Cotton stressed the importance of producing B-21 Raiders at a faster rate.

      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.

    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.

  • @maricidevamega939

    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.

    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.

    Truth is the US military budget has only decreased as a percentage of GDP and it shows. Decades of budget cuts have cut the military down to the point where we just can't keep up with so many growing threats around the US. US interest will suffer around the world and we risk a war starting because people are seriously confused about the military budget. The budget isn't nearly enough for what us asked of the military.

    Lets just give China and everyone else heads up about our Air Force and everything else is the smallest it's ever been and hard to maintain because it's so old 😅 At least these countries don't have to worry about spies or anything like that cause we tell em everything they need to know 😅
