The United States this Saturday presented “the backbone” of its future air force: the B-21 Raider bomber, designed with the highest technology in the military industry to evade surveillance systems, fly enormous distances and shoot with “formidable” precision. nuclear missiles.
The presentation took place with all the ceremonial requirements for an aircraft “unparalleled in the world” and the first the United States has built in thirty years: at the Edwards base, historically associated with the Army’s experimental aircraft, and with bombers from three generations. flying over the hangar above. The Pentagon revealed that it already has half a dozen B-12s, but plans to reach a fleet of 100. Several media outlets emphasized that this new Raider model comes at an important time as a deterrent for the US on the complex international scene created by the invasion of Ukraine and tensions with Russia and China.
