The B-2A Spirit is a U.S. stealth strategic bomber designed by Northrop Grumman for penetrating heavily defended airspace. Its flying wing design, combined with radar-absorbing materials, makes it one of the most advanced stealth aircraft in the world. With intercontinental range and the ability to refuel mid-air, the B-2A can conduct global missions without landing. It carries a 40,000-pound payload of nuclear or conventional weapons, including precision-guided munitions, and is operated by a crew of two.

Entering service in 1997, the B-2A plays a critical role in strategic bombing, nuclear deterrence, and precision strike missions. Its stealth systems allow it to bypass advanced air defenses, ensuring its effectiveness in modern conflicts. Though it is being replaced by the B-21 Raider, the B-2 remains a cornerstone of U.S. airpower and a symbol of cutting-edge aviation technology.

Features:
• Pretty Manueverable for a flying wing
• not accurate model
• no weapons
• pretty satisfied, even I myself am surprised at how it handles. Best flying wing I've ever made
* Reposted for challenge and to fix pitch up problem

That's about everything, have a good time ;)
