A B-52 Stratofortress from Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, is escorted by Hornets from the Royal Australian Air Force March 21 en route to the Delamere Bombing Range as part of the Green Lightning exercise that ended last week in Australia. The Delamere Bombing Range facility in the Northern Territory is a world class military exercise site that allows many skills to be honed and tested.

The B-52 (sigh)... that and the C-130 are two of the rare occasions that the defense industry actually gets it right.

They're still flying... and probably will be even after I'm retired... and that's still a ways off.

I think 2028 is when they're officially supposed to go. So yes, that is a very....very long ways off.
