Level 67 : High Grandmaster Soldier

I present to you the nuclear missile submarine the Red Oc.....wait wrong project. This is my B-1 Lancer Bomber. Still used in service today. I've completed my B-1 Lancer as of 11-6-12. Also perhaps in the future I'll add another schematic that has a bomb drop system, which will drop TNT with the bomb bay doors open. This is the 3rd project I've ever posted to Planet Minecraft. With that said, it took a long time to build and I hope it get's a lot of popularity.

Now I designed the aircraft so the engines can hold lava with in the pressure plate and iron fences. I recommend you don't though because for some reason after long periods of time, a slab goes away allowing lava to come out of the bottom of the engine.

Disclaimer: Don't worry the schematic doesn't actually have lava in it or TNT for the bomb bay.

The schematic has a bomb bay along with bomb bay doors which can be controlled from one point in the cockpit.

If you guys want I can add a switch to drop bombs(TNT Blocks) but any mistakes or perhaps blow ups inside the aircraft don't blame me for it K.

Rockwell B-1 Lancer



The Rockwell (now part of Boeing) B-1 Lancer[N 1] is a four-engine variable-sweep wing strategic bomber used by the United States Air Force (USAF). First envisioned in the 1960s as a supersonic bomber with sufficient range and payload to replace the Boeing B-52 Stratofortress, it developed primarily into a low-level penetrator with long range and supersonic speed capability at high altitude.

Designed by Rockwell International, the bomber's development was delayed multiple times over its history, as the theory of strategic balance changed from flexible response to mutually assured destruction and back again. This change in stance repeatedly demanded then ignored the need for manned bombers. The initial B-1A version was developed in the early 1970s, but its production was canceled, and only four prototypes were built. The need for a new platform once again surfaced in the early 1980s, and the aircraft resurfaced as the B-1B version with the focus on low-level penetration bombing. However by this point development of stealth technology was promising an aircraft of dramatically improved capability. Production went ahead as the B-1B would be operational before these "Advanced Technology Bomber" concepts, during a period when the B-52 would be increasingly vulnerable. It entered service in 1986 with the USAF Strategic Air Command as a nuclear bomber.

In the 1990s, the B-1B was converted to conventional bombing use. It first served in combat during Operation Desert Fox in 1998 and again during theNATO action in Kosovo the following year. The B-1B has supported U.S. and NATO military forces in Afghanistan and Iraq. The Lancer is the supersonic component of the USAF's long-range bomber force, along with the subsonic B-52 and Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit. The bomber is commonly called the "Bone" (originally from "B-One"). With the retirement of the General Dynamics/Grumman EF-111A Raven in 1998 and theGrumman F-14 Tomcat in 2006, the B-1B is the U.S. military's only active variable-sweep wing aircraft. The B-1B is expected to continue to serve into the 2020s, when it is to be supplemented by the Next Generation Bomber.

Additional Notes

If you guys want I can add a switch to drop bombs(TNT Blocks) but any mistakes or perhaps blow ups inside the aircraft don't blame me for it K.

If you are not pleased in this design with things I could fix such as maybe wings, engine, tail etc. I will fix those problems as you command.

This is so cool! I love it because when you look at it from the top and at the back it looks exactly like a picture of the b-1b lancer i have seen on google images!!! Very neat job!

It's a cruise speed super sonic bomber so I would have to guess it's designed to drop nukes.
