The B-21 Raider stealth bomber will argue with hypersonic missiles and nuclear bomb B61-12 (video)

According to journalists, there are prerequisites that a new bombard bomber B-21 Raider with conventional and nuclear ammunition will be arrived in the early 2030s. B-21 Raider is currently undergoing flight tests. This stealth bomber is expected to be put into operation by 2030. Developed for unnoticed missions in the deep rear of the enemy B-21 will be completed with advanced weapons, including a modernized B61-12 nuclear bomb, high-precision ammunition and possibly future hypersonic missiles.

The National Interest writes about it. With the decommissioning B-2 and B-1, B-21 will become one of two bombers in the US Air Force arsenal for US nuclear deterrent. There are prerequisites that the new bomber of the invisible B-21 Raider will be commissioned in the early 2030s. Its development of the US Air Force was kept secret.

Describing the B-21 mission, the representatives of the Air Force indefinitely wrote that "the B-21 Raider will be a two-target shock stealth bomber capable of delivering both ordinary and nuclear ammunition. " This can be attributed to all American bombers from the beginning of the nuclear era. But it is believed that the B-21 will be the carrier of advanced weapons. The main distinguishing feature of the B-21 will be its secrecy.

Theoretically, the B-21 will be able to penetrate the protected airspace and perform missions from a deep impact in the rear of the enemy without being detected. After the B-2 is removed from weapons, the B-21 will become the only stealth bomber in the world.

But, according to the authors of the publication, the United States is not going to burden themselves with the projection, production and purchase of invisible bombard-at a price of several hundred million dollars-if it fails to deliver advanced weapons for hard-to-reach purposes.

What weapon will B-21 carry? The details are not disclosed, but the B-21 is likely to be equipped with a number of modern ammunition, including a modernized B61-12 nuclear bomb and high-precision ammunition, such as AGM-158B JASSM-ER, JDAM and AARGM kits. The B61 nuclear bomb is considered to be the most significant addition to the B-21. Nuclear weapons were used in battle only twice - the United States struck two strokes in Imperial Japan at the end of World War II.

And the fact that nuclear weapons can now be equipped with invisible bombers, deeply worries all the opponents of America. Thus, the B-21 becomes one of the most noticeable weapons in the US arsenal. The presence of B-21 in the region will have diplomatic impact, as B-2 today. The B-21 can also be equipped with hypersonic weapons.

At present, the US armed forces do not have a working hypersonic version, but as soon as weapons are able to develop speeds of up to 5 strokes, will appear in service, it will improve shock systems and expand the potential for restraining future threats, according to Lockheed Martin. In fact, the hypersonic rocket will be another reason for the opponents for the concern, which will be extremely difficult to protect itself. Recall the KAI KF-21 fighter-cheap South Korean F-35 with one problem.
