The B-2A Spirit is a bomber built from composite materials and employing both Stealth and Flying Wing technologies, resulting in a design with massive offensive punch, a high level of survivability and precision delivery capabilities in all conditions.
This book follows Squadron/Signal’s popular “In Action” format with Don Greer cover art, two colour pages as a “centrefold”, helpful line drawings and specifications spread over 50 pages in landscape format. As with the rest of the series, the real backbone of these books are the multitude of photographs packed between the covers. These photos are captioned in detail.
Despite the relative secrecy surrounding stealth technology in general, Jim Goodall provides around 80 photos of the B-2A Spirit, combined with an interesting summation of operations to date. These include Operation Allied Force, NATO's air campaign against Yugoslavia; and the current Operation Enduring Freedom.
