Why the $2 Billion Bomber Can't Fly in the Rain

When exposed to rain or high humidity, the RAM can degrade, compromising the aircraft's stealth features. Water exposure weakens the material's ability to absorb radar signals, increasing the risk of detection. Rain can accelerate the cooling of the B-2's engines, which are designed to operate at extreme temperatures.

There have been costly incidents where B-2 bombers sustained damage due to exposure to rain, leading to significant repair costs and operational downtime. For instance, one incident reportedly resulted in a loss of $2 billion when a B-2 was left uncovered in adverse weather conditions.
