    The document discusses the key features and capabilities of the B-2 Stealth Bomber. It can carry large bombs and refuel in air, allowing it to travel very far. Its stealth capabilities come from its shape, radar-absorbent coating, and engines buried inside, making it difficult to detect on radar. While it takes many people and six months of training to prepare the bomber for flight due to its complex components, its large wings make it relatively easy to fly compared to other aircraft.

    The B-2 Stealth Bomber can hold two Massive Ordnance Penetrators,
    30,000 pound bombs(Collins). This is one feature of the B-2 stealth bomber but
    there are many others. The plane is stealth because it is not on radar. The plane is
    hard to get ready for flight but easy to fly. The components cause it to make it
    harder to take off.
    There are a lot of components to the B-2 Stealth Bomber There are many
    components that make the B-2 different than other bombers. The revolutionary
    blending of low-observable technologies with high aerodynamic efficiency and large
    payload gives the B-2 important advantages over existing bombers (B-2 SPIRIT, 2).
    These components make it good to go on missions. The plane has the ability to
    carry more than 20 tons of conventional and nuclear ordnance (B-2 Spirit Stealth
    Bomber ,1). One of the components is the weapon. This plane can refuel in the air.
    It can fly 6,000 nautical miles unrefueled and 10,000 nautical miles with just one
    aerial refueling{ (B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, 1). The third component is a how far it
    can go. The B-2 bomber can go really far with out refueling. The components of the
    B-2 help it to be different than other planes.
    The B-2 Stealth Bomber is made to be stealth and not be seen on the radar.
    One of the features that makes it stealth is The B-2s flat, narrow shape and black
    coloration help it fade into the night (, 3). So it can be more stealth in the night. The
    second feature that makes it stealth is the Engines are buried inside the plane. This
    helps muffle the noise ( , 3). It is so quiet that the enemy will not hear it coming.

    The third feature that makes it stealth is Northrop Grumman has developed a new
    radar-absorbent coating to preserve the B-2s stealth characteristics(B-2 Spirit
    Stealth Bomber, 1).These are some facts about the B2. The radar-absorbent coating
    helps the plane to be stealth. The last feature that makes it stealth is The engine has
    an exhaust temperature control system to minimize thermal signature (B-2 Spirit
    Stealth Bomber, 2). So that it is not hot so it will not go on the radar. All of these
    features help the B-2 to be stealth.
    The B-2 Stealth Bomber takes a lot of work to get it ready and fly the plane. It
    takes a lot of training to fly it.Six months training just for the B-2(Collins). The
    training helps you to fly the B-2. For the B-2 it takes a lot of people to get it working.
    Theres hundreds of people that work on [just] the engines and work on the radar
    coating(Collins). There are even more people to get it ready for flight. So you are
    safe to go You have one person fly the airplane and the other person works on the
    weapons(Collins). You need two people to control the plane. The training helps
    them to fly the plane. Compared to other airplanes the B-2 is actually pretty easy to
    fly(Collins). Not only the training helped but also the big wings made it easer to fly.
    Overall it takes a lot of people to get it ready and training to fly it.
    The B-2s components are the reason it takes a lot of people to get it ready.
    The components of the B-2 help it be different than other planes. All of these
    features help the B-2 to be stealth. It takes a lot of people to get it ready and training
    to fly it. Overall, the B-2 is stealth, easy to fly, and has a lot of features.
