The U.S. Department of Defense has reaffirmed its commitment to the B-21 Raider stealth bomber program in its fiscal year 2025 budget request, ensuring the continuation of the Development and Production Phase (EMD) and the transition to low-speed production Start (LRIP).
The budget also includes funds for the purchase of parts with a long production time, which is an important step in increasing production. As a next-generation long-range, highly survivable, and penetrating strike bomber, the B-21 Raider is designed to gradually replace the B-1 Lancer and B-2 Spirit, eventually becoming the backbone of the U.S. Air Force bomber fleet.
