The Pentagon presented a state-of-the-art strategic nuclear bomber

It is the first new American bomber in over 30 years

The American company Northrop Grumman presented the strategic bomber B-21 Raider, which is considered the most modern aircraft of the US Navy.

Even the latest generation air defense systems will find it extremely difficult to detect the B-21 Raider, a "stealth" with a triangular wing.

It is the first new American bomber in over 30 years.

Almost every aspect of the creation program is classified. In addition to the ability to carry nuclear weapons, it can fool enemy radars and disguise itself as other objects thanks to a special coating. It can also be used with or without a crew.

According to the head of the Pentagon, Lloyd Austin, the bomber will soon be tested in the sky, after which its production will be launched.

There are currently 6 B-21 Raiders on the assembly line, but the US plans to produce about 100.
