Northrop Grumman win US Bomber contract

Nice work if you can get it...


WASHINGTON — The Air Force said Tuesday it chose Northrop Grumman Corp., maker of the B-2 stealth bomber, to build its next-generation bomber, a highly classified, $80 billion project designed to replace the aging bomber fleet with an information-age aircraft that eventually may be capable of flying without a pilot aboard.

The loser of the high-stakes bidding contest was a team formed by Boeing Co. and Lockheed Martin Corp.

Well in fairness, I did use small simple words instead of complicated TLAs to draw the pointy jet jocks in...
