[B-2 STEALTH BOMBER, US AIR FORCE, MILITARY AIRCRAFT]. On offer here is a fine ORIGINAL PRINT OF THE NORTHROP – GRUMMAN B-2’STEALTH’ BOMBER. The print is hand signed by B-2 test pilot for Northrop – Grumman Wayne Staley at lower right. The print sheet measures 18.25 inches x 24.25 inches. The print is in excellent condition and is completely original. The Northrop (later Northrop Grumman) B-2 Spirit. Also known as the Stealth Bomber, is an American heavy strategic bomber, featuring low observable stealth technology designed for penetrating dense anti-aircraft defenses; it is a flying wing design with a crew of two. The bomber can deploy both conventional and thermonuclear weapons, such as up to eighty 500-pound class (230 kg) Mk 82 JDAM Global Positioning System-guided bombs, or sixteen 2,400-pound (1,100 kg) B83 nuclear bombs. The B-2 is the only acknowledged aircraft that can carry large air-to-surface standoff weapons in a stealth configuration. Development started under the “Advanced Technology Bomber” (ATB) project during the Carter administration; its expected performance was one of the President’s reasons for the cancellation of the Mach 2 capable B-1A bomber. The ATB project continued during the Reagan administration, but worries about delays in its introduction led to the reinstatement of the B-1 program. Program costs rose throughout development. The item “1980s B-2 STEALTH BOMBER SIGNED PRINT NORTHROP GRUMMAN TEST PILOT STALEY USAF” is in sale since Sunday, December 1, 2019. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Transportation\Aviation\Military Aircraft\Other Military Aircraft Items”. The seller is “bibliomonster” and is located in Beverly Hills, California. This item can be shipped worldwide.
