<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Makes sense to me, as long as nothing in those replacement engines comes from China or anywhere else not in NATO.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Its not as simple as swapping a Chevy engine into a Ford! It also points to why the military aircraft of the future need a more modular design for ease of upgrading systems and longevity.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Excellent Share! The B-52 has been around for as long as I am able to remember! Definitely an essential part of the Air Force and Our Military Defense!!!

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>the way they maintain this old bird, i can see another 50 years of service.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I wonder if our anti armor cluster bombs are game changers.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>GE has been making excellent jet engines for decades. They also power nuclear Navy vessels and build the best locomotives in the world.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>GE has an interesting, yet uncompelling opinion. Compete within the DoD acquisition framework and may the AF get the best tried &amp; tested engines for our bomber workhorse.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am going to make a strong assumption the B-52s strike capabilities have increased significantly with smart bombs. Tanks fight tanks, but the B-52 can destroy tanks en masse.
