Air Force Opts for Two-Pilot Crew for B-21 Raider Bombers

The US Air Force has decided that the B-21 Raider bombers will be flown by a two-pilot crew, a configuration that will tap into the extensive combat experience of its pilots to maximize the aircraft's lethality and survivability. This setup matches the current standard for the B-2 and is designed to support the B-21's mission needs.
