America's long-awaited and highly secretive B-21 Raider — potentially the stealthiest aircraft ever to fly — will finally be revealed later this year. According to announcements from the Air Force and Northrop Grumman, the unveiling will occur during the first week of December at Northrop's Palmdale, California facility.

This will be the first new stealth bomber revealed to the world in 34 years, and has the potential to dramatically increase America's lead in stealth aviation.
