6 bombers. 3 Re-enginings. GE is the clear choice.

The B-52 has guarded our freedom since the 1950’s. To sustain this legendary aircraft, it needs new engines. With the most USAF re-enginging and operational jet bomber experience, GE is best suited to re-engine the B-52. GE’s proven and reliable engines are ready to power the B-52 through 2050.

I actually read this entire article, including a number of links. FASCINATING. What an insightful essay on one of this corporation's myriad of capabilities. I never knew the depth and breadth of even this one aspect. And even met one of their up and coming junior vice presidents, Jac Kirkpatrick, back in the day. He and his wife, Sherri, are still a great friends. Wow, what an impressive American company!!!

Who would have thought that the B-52s would still be operational today? Let alone for another 30 years.
