sample quote

The bomber, which is nicknamed Cerberus, first arrived at Edwards at the conclusion its maiden flight from Northrop Grumman's facilities at the Air Force's Plant 42 in Palmdale, California on November 10, 2023.

The USAF, and Edwards AFB in particular, have been very tight lipped about any B-21 activities, including the aircraft's arrival there that went without any public fanfare.

Did some nitwit “jinx” this aircraft by labelling it “a dog” ?

Since may B-17s and B-24s were given female names,
should the B-21 named

Those two bases are less than 30 mile apart. There are a bunch of restricted air space to the north and northeast near Edwards as well as bombing and gunnery ranges for them, the military bombers and fighter bombers to practice blowing up targets up devil,
My wife's uncle work at Lockheed as an aeronautical engineer for many years,(1950s up to the early 1990s) helped design the U2 and the SR 71 as well as others that he wouldn't and couldn't talk about, IE the F117 when it was being built, tested and put into service without notifying the public.
I had one of the B2 bombers fly within a 1/2 mile of me when we were flying from Hesperia, CA up to Bend, OR on one flight in the mid 1990s, Lockheed test flew everyone of them before releasing them to the Air Force, they had a F 5 chase plane filming the entire flights I was told later by an AFB 42 employee shruggy confused
