Rockwell International B1B.
The first nuclear capable, swing wing Super Sonic bomber. 1.25 mach.
Brenda and I both worked on the project for Rockwell.
Awesome F**cking piece of equipment!

One on display at the very front of the Museum of Aviation at Robins AFB, where I work C-17 avionics/flight controls. It is one helluva bomber!

Yes Sir.
They fly daily.
The only aircraft which carried more ordnance is the B52, but that old girl is a lottttt slower!

In service since 85 says a lot for how much they like em for sure.
Thomas’ link said 2% of the missions and 40% of the ordinance.. lol
I’ll take that as “they can literally haul a metric *s-word ton of weight”.

Thomas,
Thank you for the link to the B1B page. This provides a good overview of the features of this aircraft.
But....Boeing taking credit for 100 AC being built at their factories is BS!
There is no denial Boeing can design and build a good plane, but this was and always will be
a Rockwell built AC.
