Per commercial radar, two B-52 were circling around Warsaw Poland, the night after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Their transponders were on so that Russia could see what they are and what they were carrying. One had 20 conventional cruise missiles. The other was carrying 20 nuclear cruise missiles.
In 1991 seven B-52's flew from Louisiana to Iraq no stop to attack high priority Iraqi power and communication targets and then returned.A 14,000 mile non-stop mission
I hate that the guy in the video he is reacting to is crapping on the DOD on their aircraft choices without knowing what a real battle today entails. Like, the B-52 is great for leveling targets thousands of miles away, but the modern world isn't about payload when it comes to bombing. It is now about precisely eliminating targets far behind enemy lines without alerting the enemy of their presence until it is far too late. The extra cost comes with the extra technology that has time and time again proven that new advances in stealth technology and weapons guidance systems and situational awareness are more than worth the cost. There is a reason why we lost more people on 9/11 then we did during the 20 year war in Afghanistan (If you factor in Iraq, it is about double the death toll of 9/11).
In most, but not all of these types of videos the channel owner shows a lot of useful and informative information and clips of the particular subject, But a lot of them insist on having their own image dominating most of the screen area and a piddly little box of the main subject. As a viewer, this is annoying as I do not want your image occupying 90% of the screen and a little box showing the subject. My advice to you is to change nothing except the subject to occupy 90% of the screen and you yourself hop into the little box if you insist on being recognized by some organization, that way your channel will be really appreciated. You are not the only one to doing this, most others do exactly the same and we really do not need your face being the largest object on the/our screen.
This is what happens when you make them right the first time. You should also do a review of the C5 Galaxy. Almost as old as the B52.
I've seen both the F-22, and F-35 fly at air shows. The F-22 is amazing. You need to get to an air show when you get to the US.
The B21 flew just a few days ago.

I doubt that they were nuclear laden.
Also transponders don't show armarment.

A staggering 35 hour flight longest flight at the time
Look into operation chrome dome Mikey. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
