Northrop Grumman Corporation and the A Forceéarea of ​​the USA introduced the B-21 Raider to the world. The B-21 with nuclear transport capability will joiná to the fleet as a deterrent and flexible element designedñdesigned for the USAF to fulfill its missionsás complex.

“The Northrop Grumman team develops and delivers technologyíwhat advances science, look to the future and bring it hereí and now”, Kathy Warden said, Chairwoman, CEO and President of Northrop Grumman. “The B-21 Raider defines a new era in technologyía and strengthens the role of the United States in achieving peace throughés of deterrenceón”.

The B-21 Raider forms the backbone of future poweríthe aéguilty of the USA, leading a powerful family of systems that deliver a new era of capability and flexibility throughés of integrationóadvanced data, sensors and weapons. Its sixth-generation capabilitiesón include stealth, advantage of informationón and open architecture.

Very similar to what was advancedó in the skiníbutt Top Gun: Maverick it's aviónew generationón has been created to change the history of aviationón military.

The B-21 is capable of networking in the battlespace with múmultiple systems and across domains. Backed by a digital ecosystem throughout its life cycle, the B-21 can evolve rápidly to través of technological updatesór gicasáorders that provide new capabilities to overcome future threats.

“With the B-21, Force Aéevil of USA couldá deter or defeat threats anywhere in the world”, Tom Jones said, Corporate Vice President and President of Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems. “The B-21 exemplifies cómo Northrop Grumman leads the industry in transformationón digital e ingenieríto digital and, on úlast resort, Brinda Más value to our clients”.

Six B-21 Raiders are in various stages of final assembly and testing at Northrop Grumman's Palmdale plant., California.

B-21 Rider Data

  1. Sixth Generationón. The B-21 Raider benefits from más of three détechnology fallsíattack and stealth. It is the prómaximum evolutionón of the strat bomber fleetéA-Force Magicérea.
  2. Secrecy. Northrop Grumman continually advances technologyía, using new téconical and manufacturing materialsón to ensure the B-21 defeats denial systemsón of áArea and anti-access to faceá.
  3. Backbone of the Fleet. Able to carry loads úconventional and nuclear tools, the B-21 beá one of the planesás effective in heaven, with the ability to use a wide combinationón of direct attack and standoff munitionsón.
  4. A digital bomber. The B-21 is a digital bomber. Northrop Grumman uses a software development ágil, témanufacturing techniquesón advanced engineering toolsíto digital to help mitigate production riskón in the B-21 program and allow prámodern maintenance practices.
  5. Technologyíin the cloud. Northrop Grumman and the A Forceérea demonstrated with éxito la migrationón of data from B-21 ground systems to a cloud environment. This demonstrationónot includedó the development, implementationón y prueba de datos B-21, including B-21 digital twin, what to supportá B-21 operations and maintenance. Areólida cloud-based digital infrastructure giveá as a result an aircraft más fáeasy to maintain and sustainable with lower cost infrastructure.
  6. Open Architecture. To address the evolving threat environmentón, The B-21 has been designedñado since the first dayía for an ráask for upgrade capacityón. Unlike previous generation aircraft, the B-21 will not submitá to block updates. The new technologiesías, capabilities and weapons will be incorporatedán smoothly throughés de áFast software upgrades and built-in hardware flexibility. This will ensureá that the B-21 Raider can continually confront the evolving threatón during the próximas dérock.
  7. A National Team. Since the awardón of the contract in 2015, Northrop Grumman has assembled a nationwide team to designñar, test and build the avióattack no.áworld's advanced. The B-21 team includes más de 8000 personas de Northrop Grumman, industry partners and Force Aérea. The team consists of más de 400 providers in 40 States.
  8. Maintenance. Long-term operations and maintenance affordability have been a priority of the B-21 program from the beginning.. In associationón with Force Aérea, Our team has made maintainability an equally important requirement for stealth performance to ensure we are driving más affordable and predictable.
  9. World reach. fundamental to support the deterrence strategyón strataélogic of the nationón. Además of its advanced precision attack capabilitiesón long range that allowán commanders to keep any objective at risk, anywhere in the world, spaghettién has been designedñated as the main component of a m familyás big systems to provideán intelligence, Surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities, electr attackósingle and multidomain networks.
  10. Name. The B-21 Raider is named after the Doolittle Raid of World War II when 80 aviators, Led by Lieutenant Colonel James «Jimmy» Doolittle, and 16 B-25 Mitchell medium bombers left on a missionón what changedó the course. of the second world war. The actions of these 80 volunteers were instrumental in changing the momentum at the Pac theaterífico. This markedó I asked herón as a catalyst for a multitude of future progress in superiority toéevil of USA from land or sea. The espíbrave ritual of the Doolittle Raiders is the inspirationón detrás from the name of the B-21 Raider.
