The US Air Force's B-21 Raider, a $700 million sixth-generation bomber, will be equipped for air-to-air combat and will operate alongside drones. This capability allows it to engage in air superiority missions, enhancing its role beyond traditional bombing. The USAF plans to expand its fleet significantly by 2035, aiming for a mix of stealth and fourth-generation fighters. However, achieving these ambitious goals may face challenges due to fiscal constraints and production limitations. The report suggests exploring new fighter options and increasing reliance on semi-autonomous drones. The addition of air-to-air missiles to bombers marks a significant shift in their operational capabilities.
