Our DoD & forces are not talking much about bombers. Our DoD doesn't get proper funding, so i don't think B-1, B-2, Tu-160, B-21 kind of big bombers would become reality soon.
Let's see some basic specs of current bombers:
Tu-22M - 24 tons load, 2 engines, Mach 1.9 max speed, 6,800 ms range
Tu-160 - 45 tons load, 4 engines, Mach-2 max speed, 12,300 Kms range
B-1 - 23 tons load, 4 engines, Mach 1.2 max speed?? 9,400 Kms range
B-2 - 18 tons load, 4 engines, subsonic speed, 11,000 Kms range
B-21 - 9.1 tons load?? 2 engines, subsonic speed, range undisclosed!!
We can consider both type of stealth bombers - subsonic & supersonic. It would also depend on engine available to us.
But 1st we need to make list of weapons, size & # to be carried.
- GPS guided glide bombs
- Cruise missiles
- Anti-ship missiles
- Anti-radiation missiles
