New American bomber called "nightmare for Russia"

August 1 2021 11

The promising strategic bomber B-21 Raider of the US Air Force can become a big problem even for the most modern air defense system, writes journalist Chris Osborne for the American edition of the National Interest.

The journalist noted that all the characteristics of the "strategist" will probably never be declassified. However, he managed to communicate with one well-informed and high-ranking official from the US Air Force, "who said something."

The military man assured the journalist that the new "invisibility" would pose a threat to any purpose, anywhere in the world, in any weather and at any time of the year or day. Therefore, the journalist suggested that the B-21 will be tested in one way or another on the advanced air defense systems of Russia.

Osborne believes that the Russian air defense systems are really effective. But their effectiveness will last until the Americans have the B-21. In his opinion, the S-400 and S-500 will be extremely difficult to detect the B-21. He called the future US bomber "a nightmare for Russia." The journalist summed up that the Russians will need new radars to track the American "strategists" created according to the latest technology.

Note that the development of the B-21 is carried out by the Northrop Grumman corporation (it is expected to enter service in 2025). Conceptually, the B-21 resembles the B-2 Spirit, created according to the "flying wing" scheme. One of the main tasks of such aircraft is to invisibly penetrate enemy airspace and destroy its air defense system.

The main non-nuclear weapons of the new B-21 should be hypersonic missiles, for example, the AGM-183A ARRW (expected to enter service in 2022). Recently regular Test this ammunition ended in failure. But Lockheed Martin claims that this ammunition can accelerate to Mach 17 and fly at a range of up to 800 km.

Before that, the Pentagon literally advertised 70-year-old "veteran veterans" of the US Air Force B-52H Stratofortress, which should remain in service until at least 2050, showing their updated arsenal.

Did you get everything out of the store? the last was scraped off the walls ... against the background of the last decades of the degradation of the Tang army, total obsolescence of technology, sawing up the dough to finance mythical projects, imposing their soldiers on other countries for feeding and staying as "protection from the USSR and Russia", plundering occupied countries, appropriation with the support of the brave NATO warriors of foreign gold and foreign exchange reserves and natural resources, like it is in Syria, it becomes clear "progress" in the American spirit. The eternal desire to show off, to boast so that everyone is envious - and this is when everything falls out of their hands and breaks into pieces ... An attempt to assert itself looks wretched

This is all from the category of cartoons about the new super duper weapon, but it is especially funny to read about the new American hypersonic missiles, which supposedly will fly at a speed of 17 mach and should be adopted as early as 2022, this is very funny, let's see how it will all be done, as they say, don't say - hop until you jump !!!

probably will have to balance the reactions again, so that it would not be like "little blood on a foreign land" ... we have already gone through this. There is no doubt that Northrop's hypersound of Mach 17 will have, frankly, no, perhaps they even underestimate these figures to overestimate our calculations of the arrival time ... about the B-21, this is a dangerous development, tk. these bombers are capable of discreetly delivering weapons of destruction to the desired distance to the target, not necessarily with entry into the airspace of the Russian Federation. For the first strike - on the head of state, on decision-making centers, on nuclear submarines, on stationary radars, etc. ... there will be no reaction time at all ... what would we do with the United States, we need to 1) quietly build a submarine, a carrier of hypersonic missiles 2 ) imperceptibly sail on it to the US coast at a distance of launches and then maybe everything will turn out suddenly ... but not 1 or 2 is really impossible to implement. We have no other means for a sudden first strike.

The Americans invented? Surely they decided to revive the unresponsive project stolen from the USSR in 60. Do what you need to do. They lost in this Avia-Air Defense race long ago, but they never admit it.

Joke remembered.

A donkey wound up in the forest. Trampled all the animals. Few are lucky. And even a lion, the king of beasts, also honored. The animals secretly gathered, chipped in, and called the Serpent Gorynych for a lot of money. He flew to the donkey, all so impudent, woke him up with kicks and let's scare him with his heads.
He breathes on fire and asks:
-Well, are you scared, donkey?
-Oh, scary, oh scary
Second head:
-Have you seen a donkey who is worse?
-Oh, no, oh, you're the worst.
Third head:
-And if you're scared, donkey, why are you walking around me in circles?
- Yes, I, Snake, for the first time, such a terrible ... now I will syktym! ...
