H-20 is currently the most anticipated platform for Chinese military fans, because the stealth strategic bomber is a rare short-board equipment of the PLA, the US Air Force used B-2A in 1999 to brazenly bomb the mainland embassy in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the PLA has the H-20 stealth strategic bomber, which can effectively improve China's strategic deterrence capability. After entering 2024, the media has made public the progress of the H-20, and the H-20 stealth bomber is about to come out, but the specific time has not yet been announced. When China announced the progress of the H-20 bomber, the United States had already been touched, and it can be seen from the PLA that the J-20 stealth fighter was equipped that China was "overtaking in a corner", so once China had a stealth strategic nuclear bomber, the United States would no longer have the advantage.
At present, the United States is already promoting the development and testing of a new generation of stealth strategic bomber B-21, according to information disclosed by foreign media, the US Air Force has already bet on the rhythm of B-21 stealth nuclear bombing, because the Pentagon has ordered the retirement of a B-2A stealth strategic nuclear bomber. According to the information disclosed from the US "War Zone" website, the US Pentagon announced that the retired B-2A is a platform that will have an accident in 2022, and the US Air Force has determined that the B-2A of the accident no longer has the value of repair, so the US Pentagon announced the retirement of the accident B-2A stealth strategic nuclear bomb, so the US Air Force can actually use only 19 stealth strategic nuclear bombers today.
In fact, the U.S. Air Force will have an accident of B-2A stealth nuclear bombing out of the runway in 2021, and the U.S. Air Force also focused on displaying B-2A in April, judging from the photos released by the U.S. Air Force, there are 10 B-2A "in the same frame" during the period, which reflects the strong deterrence capability of the U.S. Air Force, but behind the photos released by the U.S. Air Force, there are only 19 that can be used, and 1 of them is still in a state of repair. Judging from the Pentagon's announcement of the retirement of 1 B-2A, the US Air Force has focused on the B-21 series, but recently the US Air Force said that it would invest $7 billion in the B-2A upgrade project, so it also exposed the contradictory decisions within the US Air Force.
Judging from the composition and distribution of interests of the US military-industrial complex, the equipment policy of the US Air Force is to serve US arms dealers, and it is obvious that when Northrop Grumman is fully engaged in the construction of the B-21, it is a bit "difficult" for US arms dealers to continue to repair B-2A, and at the same time, because B-2A is a discontinued model, there is still a need to re-produce some parts and components when repairing, which will greatly deplete the production capacity of US arms dealers. For this reason, the Pentagon announced that it would decommission the accident B-2A, and at the same time, the Pentagon also invested heavily in the improvement of the B-2A, after all, there is $7 billion in funds, which is a huge profit temptation for arms dealers.
The U.S. Air Force is not betting on all B-21, and it can be seen from the fact that the U.S. Air Force wants to maintain the continued use of B-52H strategic bombers, and the United States has not completely abandoned all strategic nuclear bombardments other than B-21, because the construction of B-21 is not as fast as imagined, and the United States wants to maintain the existing deterrent force through a combination model, so the retirement of 1 B-2A is just a last resort, and for a long time in the future, B-2A will continue to be in service, And the United States will maintain four strategic nuclear bombers in service at the same time for a long time.
