The Air Force confirmed its newest stealth bomber made a test flight on Wednesday. As it did, a London-based thinktank assessed potential Pacific bases for the Raider.
The testing facilities have been used to help engineers develop China’s newest civil aircraft, the C919.
The B-21 Raider was developed to be the multifunctional backbone of the modernized bomber fleet, gradually replacing the aging B-1 Lancer and B-2 Spirit bombers now in service.

Commentary on the B-21 remains largely confined to the realm of speculation. After all, the warbird remains shrouded in secrecy.
