The B-1B Lancer is the largest free world aircraft yet built to use a variable-geometry, or movable wing, which is designed to provide maximum aircraft performance. With the wings fully swept forward, wing span measures 136 feet 8-1/2 inches. Sweeping the wings back allows the bomber to streak through the skies at 1,450 mph, or Mach 1.4, to deliver up to 115,000 lbs. of bombs, 32 AGM-69 SRAM missiles, or 32 of the new AGM-86 B cruise missiles. With the retirement of the EF-111 Raven in 1998 and the F-14 Tomcat in 2006, the B-1B is the last variable wing aircraft remaining in U.S. military inventory. New technology has given the B-1B a radar profile only one hundredth that of the larger B-52, allowing it to sneak under enemy radar beams, hugging the ground under the control of an automatic terrain avoidance guidance system. The B-1B is well designed for survivability and operational efficiency. It can withstand the effects of a nearby nuclear blast and take-off quickly, even if under attack. Detailed cockpit, main landing gear and nose radar plus movable swing wings and tail planes. Optional open or closed bomb bay doors with 16 AGM-69A SRAM missiles on rotary launchers.
