Anton,

Unlike the RAF....the USAF has more than four large transports in the fleet. Add in the civilian charter fleet and the numbers grow significantly.

One could wipe out the entire fleet of B-1's and still have more than adequate numbers of bomber aircraft to do the job. Old Buff will be around for many more years if not centuries it seems.
