Talk:Bomber
From Academic Kids
Is it only me or does anyone else take an inference from the following quote from the Bomber page?
- "The U.S. Air Force's most expensive bomber is the B-2. It is a stealth bomber built by Northrop Grumman. Its price tag was near $2 billion per aircraft. This plane is capable of flying to any target in the world from its base in the center of the United States and back without stopping anywhere by means of midair refueling".
While true, there are many other aircraft with the same capability. Suggest the last sentence above be changed to "The use of aerial refueling gives the B-2 a range limited only by crew endurance", which comes from the B52 page (with B-2 substituted for B52 of course).Moriori 02:20, 1 Nov 2003 (UTC)
- Good idea, the original sentence is pretty awkwardly phrased. Stan 03:59, 1 Nov 2003 (UTC)
