    I was under the impression that the b-2 had a smallish payload due to it stealth constraints but maybe that was just in comparison to the B-52.

    Jesus this is grim they're resorting to tactics they haven't used since Vietnam.

      I can't say for sure how they're using it - a bomber that big can carry fewer, larger weapons, after all - but it's more to say that the B-2 isn't a small tactical bomber, like an Su-34 or something. It can absolutely be used to level an entire neighbourhood in a single pass, if the US willed it
