No. Russia is still using their old bomber made in 1959. It has no stealth technology and the US has intercepted them multiple times and escorted them back to Russian air space. It has no stealth technology and still uses cannons to defend itself. This will be Russia's bomber until 2040. I doubt they will replace it with a stealth type bomber because there military budget couldn't afford it. Russia's military is under funded as it is and a stealth bomber program would be very expensive.
Because they are all based in the USA and make training missions all over.
it is shaped like that because it's shape on radar would look small and could be mistaken for a bird or static
To travel from Missouri to California by road, you would have to pass through the Rocky Mountains. These mountains span across states such as Colorado, Utah, and Nevada before reaching California. The most common route taken is through Interstate 70 or Interstate 80.
It would depend on the type of damage. Gashes and damage that interrupt the smooth lines of the aircraft can increase its radar profile. In most cases the damage will not be enough to make a significant change.
Stealth technology is used to make an aircraft or seacraft undetectable or hard to detect by radar technology. It is employed on the Boeing B2 Spirit bomber so that a potential target would not be able to detect the aircraft until its too late. Stealth technology can be used to penetrate automated defense systems and strike a target, or pave the way for non-stealth aircraft. -K
The F-22, being an air superiority fighter is naturally much faster. It is reputed to have a top speed in excess of mach2 -about 1450 mph (but you can seldom believe anything they publish, and I would not be surprised if it was faster than this.) -The B-2 is a stealth bomber with a high subsonic speed.
The primary classification characteristics of the B-2 Spirit would be:StrategicIntercontinentalLow-Observable (Stealth)SubsonicMannedMulti-role (capable of both conventional and nuclear ordinance delivery)
The modern B2 stealth bomber uses a skeleton of standard aircraft aluminum. Components such as the engines, cockpit, and fuel tanks are made of a variety of materials: some steel, some aluminum, and variety of "standard" composites. The skin of the aircraft consists of the stealth material, which is a top-secret non-metallic composite compound. In addition, a special radar-absorbent paint-like substance is spread over the entire exterior surface (except the windscreen), to seal up the aircraft and insure than to panel or fasteners are exposed (as they would significantly hurt the "stealthiness" of the aircraft).
That would be the pony express
California did enter the Union as a free state - too big to fit the terms of the Missouri Compromise. The key question was: What would have happened if California had entered the Union as two separate states, North and South California, meeting on the Missouri line? I believe war could then have been averted.
A stealth plane would be illegal without orders from authority and if you were to construct a stealth plane, it would depend what equipment you are storing (bombs and etc).
