We are hours away from the unveiling of the first American strategic bomber capable of carrying nuclear weapons in more than three decades.

Here's What We Know

Northrop Grumman announced in mid-October that the B-21 Raider, the successor to the B-1 Lancer and B-2 Spirit bomber, will be officially unveiled on December 2, 2022. The event will take place at the Palmdale, California, plant.

For obvious reasons, the manufacturer focused on Pacific time. For Eastern Hemisphere residents, the presentation of the B-21 Raider will take place on the night of December 3. Therefore, detailed material about the new bomber awaits as early as Saturday.

You'll be able to watch the presentation on Northrop Grumman's official website, but at the time of writing the broadcast has not been announced. The event will also be streamed on the U.S. Air Force Edwards Air Force Base YouTube channel. The start time is Dec. 3 at 20:30 (EDT) or 17:30 (PDT).
