New B-52 Radar, Second B-21 Both Entering Flight Testing ‘Soon’

Lt. Gen. Andrew J. Gebara, deputy chief of staff for strategic deterrence and nuclear integration, said the B-52’s new radar will soon enter flight testing and is “turning a corner” after a cost overrun triggered a notification to Congress and program review earlier this year. He also said he expects a second B-21 to start flying before the end of 2025.
