This one's very Foss-esque

Izzat like?

Fantastic artwork. Thanks for sharing.

that is a pretty awesome sight

Yupp, rubber paint, new engines, and maybe, just maybe...

All true, but it was still a totally bad-ass looking bird, especially when it was naked...

Should have ordered Super Tomcats.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

I get the need to do it, but it makes me sick.

Can't be seen because it's getting tuned up in the repair shop a lot.

High-tech gear, low-tech engines...

The opposite side of the plate would be perfect, except that the weiner would just fall into the hole.

This has to get done. People are talking about the possibility of the B52 flying until 2040, or later. I think that this will happen. The reason is pretty straight forward- what would replace it? More B2's? The next bomber? Both options are beyond affordable...

Wow.

Awesome pics.
Stupidly, I was thinking that you were going to show some adversarial action shots.
Until my brain kicked in...

Yup, it's designed for rough airfields. I wonder , however, about how that MTBF would suffer if they did it very much, though...

Nice beaver.

"You simply do not need a high-end stealth bomber to fight black and camo clad jihadis driving around in Toyota Hilux trucks."

I've never heard an SR-71 fly-pass, but I've heard the F-14 (an absolutely f-ing amazing 1-jet performance) and the F-4 up close. Those F-4s are batsh*t LOUD!!
See that black smoke coming from that inboard F4? That's LOUD smoke!!
