Here is the B-2 Spirit launching a JASSM (Joint Air to Surface Standoff Missile). The latter has a public range of 200 nautical miles. It was successfully reprogrammed in flight from its mother B-1 in a test last year and that capability is now operational. It can be carried and launched from B-1, B-2, F-15, F-16, and F-18.

JASSM a 2,000-lb class airborne weapon developed by Lockheed Martin, features a stealthy composite airframe that makes it extremely difficult for enemy defenses to successfully combat. Ninety-five percent of the fuselage surface area and load bearing structure is manufactured using braided carbon fiber preforms supplied by Fiber Innovations Inc.

Is the machine braiding this body-snatcher not delicious.
