B-2 Accident: Since the U.S. Air Force’s B-2 Spirit’s introduction to service more than three decades ago, only one of these stealth bombers has ever been lost in an accident. Perhaps surprisingly, it wasn’t combat or military drills that downed this formidable airframe, but a routine flight. Following the loss of this B-2, only 20 of these essential bombers remain in the service. The Spirit may be old, but the platform continues to play a key role in America’s long-range strike arsenal.
