It really does sound like the B2 is a pile of garbage.

Technologically advanced, sure.. but what use is it if it can't even fly? lol


Name a plane that has never crashed.
Until now? ;)

I can't do that, I'm just saying that it sounds like the plane is extremely fragile. I am sure it would be extremely useful under the right circumstances.

It can't fly in the rain, heat, humidity? That's ridiculous.

It can fly in them.
That's not what the article someone posted says.
where are you getting that it can't fly in rain, heat, or humidity?

It can fly in them, but the maintenance costs associated with doing so are much higher. I think it's avoided when possible, and the B-2 requires special hangars to avoid damaging environmental conditions. That's probably why idiots think it can't fly in bad weather.
