Description
The B-52 may be old, huge and easy to detect, but it still remains one of America’s most dangerous long-range strike platforms. Instead of flying into deadly air-defence zones guarded by systems like the S-400 or HQ-9, the bomber survives by staying far away and launching cruise missiles from standoff range. In this episode, we explore how long-range weapons, electronic warfare and careful route planning allow the ageing aircraft to threaten targets without entering the kill zone. You will also discover why modern cruise missiles do the most dangerous part of the mission while the bomber stays beyond reach. This is the story of how distance, technology and strategy keep the B-52 relevant in the age of advanced missiles.
