Air and Space Forces Magazine: New B-21 Bomber Takes First Flight
The first B-21 Raider bomber took off from Air Force Plant 42 in Palmdale, Calif., just after dawn on Nov. 10, in a flight that concluded at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif, after 90 minutes, according to local observers.
“The B-21 safely landed,” said Air Force spokeswoman Ann Stefanek. “This was a test flight.”
The aircraft was filmed from outside Plant 42, heading eastbound with an F-16 chase plane after climbing to about 500 feet. The landing gear had yet to be retracted in video and photos that appeared on social media.
