Nevertheless, lacking an upgraded Vulcan, BEagle, it sounds quite sensible. Presumably the "non-penetrating" bit means that the Concept of Operations assumes that the EAD (if any) will have been neutralised by other assets. I always assumed that the B1 that spoilt Saddam's evening was loitering, ready for any such tasking, and did not have to fly far to release its weapons. Presumably LRNP could launch weapons of the JADMS type as well as Storm Shadow.
