B-2 bomber

Invisible military aircraft

The B-2 bomber is a U.S. military stealth aircraft designed to penetrate enemy air defenses undetected.

Its distinctive flying-wing shape—all wing, no tail or fuselage—minimizes radar signature.

Also called the B-2 Spirit or simply the stealth bomber.

Only 21 were built, each costing over two billion dollars: The B-2 bomber can deliver both conventional and nuclear weapons.
