Youtube takeoff of 3 B-1 bombers from Lakenheath, UK. What strikes you about this video? Highway running right by the base, spectators taking pictures, Several B-52's in the background sitting totally unprotected. No provision for drone defense; a kid could fly something into those planes and this is 4.5 years after the beginning of real drone warfare.
Wonder how the B-2 base in Missouri is protected - if at all. Hopefully our military planners are working on this. Whole Ukrainian towns now live under nets:
Excuse me but the B-1 is the baddest shaped bomber ever - I remember one doing a barrel roll over Damascus in 2003 and the CNN commentator thinking it was an F-14. I had a Vietnam buddy who actually built and mated the wings for that machine. . .they were a foot thick of mostly armor.
