How this new stealth plane keeps the US ahead of China Search Party 2024-05-16 | But at a steep costUse code SEARCHPARTY at the link below to get an exclusive 60% off an annual Incogni plan: incogni.com/searchpartyThe United States just unveiled its newest stealth bomber, the B-21 Raider. It completed its first test flight in November 2023 after more than 10 years of research and development. Much remains classified, but it's safe to say this will be one of the most advanced pieces of technology ever made. Its most important characteristic is stealth. The US claims that it can evade even the most advanced air-defense systems on earth – hence why it’s currently costing about $700 million to build one of them. This video explains why the US believes the money is not only worth it … but a national security imperative.Special Thanks: Todd Harrison, Robert Farley, Tom Ordeman, Dan GrazierSources: docs.google.com/document/d/1oUYFPm7aYnI7wd_10SMwCQnprgXWEB_htDVaS_2TDoY/edit?usp=sharingWelcome to Search Party!Search Party is a new, independent, video news show that combines experienced journalism and visual design to decode the most complex stories in international sports and geopolitics.Subscribe and turn on notifications 🔔 so you don't miss any videos: youtube.com/@Search-PartyBecome a Search Party Original member today: youtube.com/channel/UC7KbIaEOuY7H2j-cvhJ3mYA/joinAbout:Search Party is led and produced by Sam Ellis, a journalist, director, editor, and animator based in New York City.
