FPP066 - B-1 Lancer
Bomber Month ( https://www.fighterpilotpodcast.com/bombermonth/ ) marches on with the former Rockwell (now Boeing ( https://www.boeing.com/defense/b-1b-bomber/ ) ) B-1 Lancer. This week, retired U.S. Air Force ( https://www.airforce.com/ ) lieutenant colonel Chris "Wacky" Wachter joins us to talk about the bomber canceled by one president but reinstated by another in a role quite different from what was originally intended. The "Bone," which in many ways is unlike any other bomber--such as swing-wings and afterburning engines--remains a vital part of the U.S. arsenal employing a wide array of weapons in a host of missions.
