    F-15 uses Pratt & Whitney F100-PW100
    B-1B uses General Electric F101-GE-102

    @ThatAdelaideGuy actually no, If they would have built another 200 of them, they could have retired the B-52. Even the buff is a good aircraft, but could have saved a lot of money on maintenance costs.

    @056716 Thats a bit biased don’t you think? There is no need for 300 heavy bombers.. You could get the job done with 20 bombers and 280 strike fighters

    @japanowner The last B-1B rolled off the assembly line in may of 88 and you talk as if they’re brand new. I guess that means they did a good job in building a timeless aircraft.
