No stealth bombers are on order. They already built all the Air Force could afford.

No they carry spud guns
They are used for stealth bombing. They are designed to have a large payload (40,000 pounds), good stealth, and the ability to hit targets up to 6,000 miles away.
the bombers used in the R.A.F (Royal Air Force) and the usaf are b-52s or stealth bombers but this is classified so if i tell you ill have to kill you
Researching a variety of news websites has shown that the USA sent Stealth Bombers to South Korea to participate in military exercises due to increasing tensions with North Korea. The purpose was to demonstrate that the US is able to conduct precision strikes quickly and at will.
The only information I could find was a B-2 stealth bombers cost about $10,000 per hour
Bombers fly above a certain altitude (higher than a normal plane), that's why you can not hear them.
Stealth bombers are triangle-shaped primarily to enhance their radar-evading capabilities. The triangular design, characterized by flat surfaces and sharp angles, minimizes radar cross-section by reflecting radar waves away from the source rather than back to it. This shape also allows for greater aerodynamic efficiency and stability during flight, contributing to the aircraft's overall performance in stealth missions. Additionally, the design facilitates the internal carriage of weapons, further reducing visibility.
7,377 Lancaster bombers were built.
At the height of the Luftwaffe's power they had about 2,800 bombers. Almost all of these were what the Allies would class as 'light bombers'.
The horsepower of a stealth bomber varies based on its model and age. However, modern stealth bombers like the B-2 Spirit have four engines with a total thrust of around 77,000 pounds each, equating to approximately 17,000 horsepower per engine. This would give the B-2 Spirit a total horsepower of around 68,000.
A stealth bomber, such as the B-2 Spirit, primarily uses JP-8 jet fuel, which is a kerosene-based fuel commonly used in military aircraft. JP-8 is designed for high-performance and efficiency in various operating conditions. Additionally, stealth bombers may utilize special fuel additives to enhance performance and reduce infrared signatures, contributing to their stealth capabilities.
