BTW - B1 circled my neighborhood for about 15 minutes waiting for the start of a NASCAR race. By far the loudest thing I ever heard - and that was with no afterburners.

B1 was designed as a supersonic nuclear bomber, not as a stealth plane.
Although, it is a lot stealthier than the B52.

In January 1982 the U.S. Air Force awarded two contracts to Rockwell worth a combined $2.2 billion for the development and production of 100 new B-1 bombers.[59] Numerous changes were made to the design to better fit it to real-world missions, resulting in the new B-1B.[46] These changes included a reduction in maximum speed,[55] which allowed the variable-aspect intake ramps to be replaced by simpler fixed geometry intake ramps in the newer design. This reduced the B version's radar signature; the reduction in radar cross-section was seen as a good trade off for the speed decrease

If a B-1 is going fast enough you don't hear it coming! In full afterburner it burns 80,000 pounds of fuel per hour. I used to fly the KC-135R and was co-located with two B-1 squadrons. I never got tired of the roar of a B-1 full-blower departure. Jet noise, especially from something like a B-1, truly is the sound of freedom!

My wife's nagging is a similar din, but it sure ain't the sound of freedom.



Please don't tell her I said that.
