building new bombers in the tradition sense (not an oversized fighter that can carry bombs) whether stealth or otherwises seems to be a contriversal subject these days, only a few country's have them, they seem to be massively expensive to build and generally far to complicated, though of course the idea of an other stealth bomber is very tempting......

This is something I have talked about at length before especially on Arrse, but really with modern guided weapons, (though at the moment I'm not up on my modern weapons as I need to be) surely a bomber that can carry a large bomb load at high altitude and/or high speed will be just as good and a lot less expensive,

So one question I have, is there a market for a modern un-stealthy tradtional style bomber???
