B-2 Spirit Bomber Equipped with Functional Crew Rest Facilities for Ultra-Long Missions
The Northrop B-2 Spirit is not designed for comfort; it is designed survive the first night of war. It is designed to be one of the first aircraft to kick in the proverbial door and carry out some of the operation's opening strikes. Unlike other bombers in service with the US, Russia, and China, it is able to penetrate enemy air defenses. To avoid the risk of being struck on the ground and to maximize surprise and uncertainty, these bombers often take off directly from their home base at Whiteman AFB, Missouri.
