The legend that outlives its own successors. 🇺🇸🦾
The B-52 Stratofortress is undergoing the most massive transformation in its history. In 2026, the "BUFF" is officially transitioning to the B-52J configuration. With new Rolls-Royce F130 engines and the AN/APQ-188 AESA radar, this 1950s icon is being rebuilt to serve until at least 2050—making it the first century-old combat aircraft.
🚀 What’s New for the B-52 in 2026:
$2 Billion Re-Engining: Replacing the 1960s-era TF33s with 30% more fuel-efficient Rolls-Royce turbofans.
Digital Overhaul: A full glass cockpit and advanced Link 16 data sharing.
Hypersonic Missile Truck: Now being optimized to carry the ARRW and HACM hypersonic missiles.
🎯 Operational Update: Flight testing for the new radar began in late 2025 and continues throughout 2026 at Edwards Air Force Base.
