The B-2A flying-wing (Stealth Bomber) is designed to penetrate enemy air defenses and to attack strategic targets, with nuclear bombs and stand-off weapons.

The first flight of the number one B-2A (82-1066), known as AV-1 or Air Vehicle One, took place at Palmdale, CA on July 17th,1989.

The B-2A is powered by four General Electric F-118-GE-110 non-afterburning turbofan engines mounted in pairs inside the wing adjacent to the crew/pay- Load area with both inlets and exhausts atop the aircraft to help to shield them from infra-red detection from below.

The crew compartment provides side-by-side seating for two crew members, both of them will be pilots (not navigator or radar navigator/bombardier).

The B-2As may not be as stealthy as the USAF assert. The B-2A is difficult to detect at least, in time for an effective defense by the high-frequency radars used in fire-control systems today.

The new version of the B-2A, known as the B-2C (C for conventional) will be based closely on the current B-2A Block 30, thought it would have a new and much less costly radar and old-technology computers would be replaced by commercial, off-the-shelf processors. One plan that has been mooted would involve the production of 40 more B-2Cs over a 10 years period for a total cost of $28 billion.
