The B-21 Raider And The Future Of The Air Force Bomber Force

Published

on



The Northrop Grumman B-21 Raider is the Air Force’s new stealth bomber. Slated to begin flight tests in 2023, the secretive aircraft was revealed to the public in December 2022. Capable of nuclear and conventional missions, the Air Force plans to use the B-21 to replace an aging bomber force over the coming decades.

“The B-21 looks very similar to the B-2 because the fundamentals of stealth and long-range penetrating air are built around the concept of a flying wing,” said Doug Young, vice president and general manager, strike division at Northrop Grumman. “And that even goes back to the YB-49 jet when Jack Northrop actually created some of the first flying wings.’

Watch the video above to find out more about the new high-tech stealth bomber slated to fly in 2023.

    It is good to see how USA spending huge amount of money on weapons while completely ignore the livelihoods of her people. She always thought that she needs to have military supremacy over other countries but her reputation is bankrupted worldwide today.

    I work as a machinist in the aerospace industry. At my previous employer I made a handful of different part numbers for the new B-21, mostly titanium. We were told we got a contract for a new aircraft, they speculated a new bomber but we were told nothing else. So for a few years we started producing these parts, mostly on 5-axis milling centers. An insane amount of time, effort, money and tooling went into just what we produced. And to know that these aircraft consist of thousands of complex individual parts, that all require a high level of precision, really is a testament to the human spirit to create. Its amazing. Now I can say with certainty that the aircraft shown in this video has a few parts that I manufactured and inspected with my own hands. Pretty cool feeling to see it complete because when you’re manufacturing individual parts, they feel inconsequential. Just “widgets” for “who knows what.” Well here it is. Very proud to be apart of it, even with my role being small and relatively insignificant.

    This is awesome but… What other country on this planet would counter the US with a B-52 filled sky? Seriously? I know that really smart people thought this through and I'm just a YouTube poster but… Even if a rogue nation spotted a cloud of unstealthily, loud B-52s on its way to deliver a message, what would the nation do? "Oh, we just spotted 100 B-52s… Ok… Um… $#it…"

Why There’s An ‘Extremely Fierce’ Battle For TSMC’s Limited Chip Manufacturing Capacity

Published

on

By



Unstoppable demand for AI is leading to a capacity crunch on factory lines at the world’s leading chip manufacturer, Taiwan Semiconductor. And it could put a chokehold on AI’s ability to scale. Analysts tell CNBC that Nvidia, Apple, Broadcom, AMD and others are locked in an “extremely fierce” competition to get their GPUs, CPUs and custom AI chips made at TSMC. Capacity can’t come online fast enough, despite TSMC’s rush to build new fabs in Taiwan, Japan and Arizona, where has expanded investment to $265 billion. The strain has made one man at TSMC “the most popular person on the planet,” as chip start-ups and big name CEOs visit Taiwan to ask him for wafer allocation. It’s also created a rich opportunity for Intel, as customers look to the long-struggling foundry arm of the U.S. chip manufacturer for a second source.
