Pretty amazing they have that much confidence in the airframes. Always liked the B-52 but I've yet to build one. Now I'll have to wait for the J 
Thanks,

The B-52 will still be around for at least 20 years.

There must be a secret factory out there somewhere building new airframes! Part of the black budget to circumvent the Tubervillians.

Yeah it's going to keep going while they retire the B-1 and B-2.
