The video has been produced by Defense News who is running a series on the US Military’s nuclear arsenal. In the video, Bolton talks about his experience about flying the highly specialized aircraft, ‘I was amazed at how busy the workload is for two people. Flying the airplane is a very different sensation just based on the fact that it has spoilers and as a flying wing, its properties—especially when you’re getting close to getting on deck—are very different than a normal airplane with a tail and flaps, etc.’

The B-2 stealth bomber is one of the most known unknowns in the world! It was developed by Northrop Grumman and had quite a long range that enables it to find its way deep into the airspace of the enemy and drop some of the most powerful artillery in the US’s military arsenal including nuclear and non-nuclear ordnance. The defense contractor also says that the B-2 is capable of flying 6,000 nautical miles without needing a refuel, and with a single mid-air refueling, it’s range can be extended up to 10,000 nautical miles.

It is capable of carrying up to 20 tons of bombs that are precision-guided including 30,000lbs Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bombs that can easily penetrate bunkers up to 200 feet made of concrete and hardened steel. The exterior has been designed in a way that it disrupts the radar signals thus preventing them from identifying any radar operator that an object is in the range.
