The combat effectiveness of the B-2 was proved in Operation Allied Force, where it was responsible for destroying 33 percent of all Serbian targets in the first eight weeks, by flying nonstop to Kosovo from its home base in Missouri and back. Depot maintenance responsibility for the B-2 is performed by Air Force contractor support and is managed at the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center at Tinker AFB, Okla. The first aircraft, Spirit of Missouri, was delivered Dec. Whiteman AFB, Missouri, is the only operational base for the B-2. The B-2 Combined Test Force, Air Force Flight Test Center, Edwards Air Force Base, California, is responsible for flight testing the engineering, manufacturing and development aircraft on the B-2. 22, 1988, when it was rolled out of its hangar at Air Force Plant 42, Palmdale, California. The first B-2 was publicly displayed on Nov. The B-2 has a crew of two pilots, a pilot in the left seat and mission commander in the right, compared to the B-1B's crew of four and the B-52's crew of five. Many aspects of the low-observability process remain classified however, the B-2's composite materials, special coatings and flying-wing design all contribute to its "stealthiness." These signatures make it difficult for the sophisticated defensive systems to detect, track and engage the B-2.

The B-2's low observability is derived from a combination of reduced infrared, acoustic, electromagnetic, visual and radar signatures. Its unrefueled range is approximately 6,000 nautical miles (9,600 kilometers). Its low-observability provides it greater freedom of action at high altitudes, thus increasing its range and a better field of view for the aircraft's sensors. The revolutionary blending of low-observable technologies with high aerodynamic efficiency and large payload gives the B-2 important advantages over existing bombers. Its capability to penetrate air defenses and threaten effective retaliation provides a strong, effective deterrent and combat force well into the 21st century. Its low-observable, or "stealth," characteristics give it the unique ability to penetrate an enemy's most sophisticated defenses and threaten its most valued, and heavily defended, targets. The B-2 provides the penetrating flexibility and effectiveness inherent in manned bombers. The B-2 brings massive firepower to bear, in a short time, anywhere on the globe through previously impenetrable defenses. A dramatic leap forward in technology, the bomber represents a major milestone in the U.S. Why did I not want to see Dustin? It doesn't matter, but it defiantly wasn't worth this!" I mutter to myself.The B-2 Spirit is a multi-role bomber capable of delivering both conventional and nuclear munitions. Why did I go for Will's house? Oh right, because you wanted to stay with him and not see Dustin.

I sigh when I see that I'm a little more than halfway down. I look over my shoulder, down at the ground. It makes another squishing sound and I cringe. I look down as I put my foot on another vine. "Why couldn't this world be as clean as ours? Why don't you clean up your world you big damn shadow!" I yell. Think of anything BUT the vines in front of your face. Think of all the chocolate, and candy your probably going to get. Think of what your going to do when your back in the real world. Don't think about the squishy slimy almost living thing your climbing down. I sit up and groan when we take a sharp turn.

I frown and look ahead and see Max and Lucas in the front seat. But you just got the shit kicked out of you by Billy." He says. I see the figure frown before my vision clears. I turn my head to my left and see a blurry figure. And in defiantly going to hate every second of this." I mutter to myself. "I'm defiantly not going to miss the slime. I look back at the hole, and see the bottom of the gate. I look across from me, and see the now huge gate. That, is a really long drop." I say as I peer down the hole in the floor. Joyce, Jonathan, and Nancy are going to get the Mind Flayer out of Will.Īnd now, we're watching the shit getting kicked out of Steve.īilly was beating up Steve, while me, Lucas, Max and Dustin were just standing around and watching. ♤First off, when the fuck did I even hit 1 k?!!! I didn't notice that I did! And now this book is at 1.91 K!! What the fucking Mind Flayer!! Did everyone just like, decide on reading this within a day?! Cause I seriously never noticed it change! Anyways, I am watching season 3! I'm only on episode 6, but do not even think about putting spoilers on here!♤
