Thought y'all might like this. Several other pics and info at the link. The probe sticking out the nose of the B-21, and the wire coming out the back are temporary for flight testing purposes.

I'm not too fond of war and killing...but I do love the tools and technology.

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

The
really interesting things about the B-21 are inside the skin. Very little public info about that, but several other articles on the site over the past few years will give you some hints of it's capabilities if you care to research it. For example, a crew is optional.
Just search for B-21 here:

That might be more right than we suspect.

The B-21 concept originated not long after the B-2 was put into service, and USAF began planning for it in 2011. It just had to wait for the necessary technology to become available. Since the design and engineering people are done with the B-21, they're already working on the next X-planes.
