" Why pack a 747 with cruise missiles? Why not!"

'cuase 'Murica!

I clicked on the article. The author makes some good points. As long as it's taken the F-22s and F-35s to get rolled out, I don't expect to see the B-21 in my lifetime.

Concerning the 747, I can see the program being developed, implemented, then all sorts of jacked up when someone decides to improve performance and expand the mission.
