I know that these are military planes that were built for the purpose of hurting and killing other human beings. This said, from a technology standpoint, they are amazing. In fact, I miss geeking out on the nonstop military innovations during the Cold war. Sort of a guilty pleasure. I'd love if they built them for no other reason than producing engineering marvels.

I would phase it as "for the purpose of deterring conflict because everyone knows they can hurt and kill human beings".

AFIAK all very long duration aircraft have sleeping provisions.

$2B for each B-2 feels as coincidental as the Moon and Sun in eclipse.

It's like a military palindrome...

I remember seeing one above Pasadena and remarking about how $1 billion is above me.

There is one on display in the USAF museum in Dayton, OH. Its quite a sight to see. Cool museum to check out overall as well. I have a photo from the second floor dining hall looking out to one of the hangars, that one photo has:

- SR-71

- B-2

- U-2

- A-10

- F-4

and more.
