The B-1 Story | Part 4 : Today and Tomorrow

The B-1 Story | Part 4 : Today and Tomorrow23 Apr28 min

The B-1B Lancer has been in service for 40-years and her later life has been incredibly busy. With the Lancer's replacement, the B-21 Raider, taking to the skies, you would think the B-1B could look forward to a well earned rest. But, as Kenneth P. Katz brings up to date on the B-1's story, we see that the Lancer's story is far from done.
