B-2 technology is very advanced, other country is built do not come out, such reason is some of course. Demand is very significant also nevertheless. Not exaggerated says, b-2 this kind of thing is American advanced science and technology + the product that the bureaucratism between army services struggles, why so say?
Monovalent 2.4 billion dollar (2005 currency value) B-2 equiped even American only 20 will wear
Because strategic bomber is weapon of blow of a kind of long-range strategy, strictly speaking is the component of nuclear deterrence system. The Russia before be being mixed besides the United States so, other country does not have overmuch demand actually to strategic bomber. For instance China. Long-range nucleus deterrence of China relies on the strategy basically completely the intercontinental missile of rocket army, you took a fancy to a country to use so old figure - of 16 homebred model bang - 6. Be China is built do not come out bomber? How likely? China connects J-20 machine of this kind of heavy-duty the Five Dynasties can be built come out, still build do not come out bomber?
Spoken parts in an opera still is to do not have necessary. After all intercontinental missile can undertake be hittinged remotely, so before other equipment is used completely quite, do not have necessary make bomber of costly concealed body strategy. After all resource is finite, good steel should be used on edge. Contemporary bomb function hangs functional ammunition, multipurpose battleplan also can be hanged carry, no more than is bomber many what hang, fly far. So actually, short range blow can give completely multipurpose battleplan and missile of short distance tactics, and remote give intercontinental missile.
Appear in intercontinental missile actually later, the position of bomber dropped many
So China still is done not have for years so make bomber of new generation strategy, basic the problem that is demand (of course here takes no account of a hearsay to bang mediumly - 20) and to today's Russia, the account that did not get follows China similar. Perhaps someone can say Russia has project of so called PAK DA. But if Russia does a PAK DA really, what TU-160M2 does that still build? (Russia announced a few days ago the product line in TU-160M2 of the open inside 2 years) as to had driven the Russia that the crane goes to on the west, did not build B-2 the reason of this kind of plane is simpler: Do not have a technology.
Do not think concealed body bomber is good do, above all, the bulk of bomber can compare battleplan a lot of bigger, so concealed body sex is inferior to concealed body battleplan inherently. And the concealed body effect to achieve likeness, concealed body bomber can use B-2 basically only in that way flying ala layout.
And the difficulty of flying ala layout can say is all plane position in highest. No matter be the design difficulty of pneumatic layout, still fly to those who control software to write difficulty, flying ala layout exceeded duck ala position far. The B-2 head of American flies to want when 1989. If Russia can produce the concealed body bomber of flying ala layout before disintegrate, so why is he produced before disintegrate no longer the battleplan of the Five Dynasties of 8 classics? (the technical standard of MIG-1.44 and Su-47 is basic it is a 4 acting machine, can calculate machine of the Five Dynasties far from)
Dare also profess even lozenge nose machine of the Five Dynasties?
