🇺🇸⚡️ — The U.S. Air Force has announced integrating the AGM-158C Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) with the B-2A Spirit stealth strategic bomber through an announcement of a LRASM launch conducted by a B-2A during Exercise Valiant Shield 2026. No efforts to integrate the LRASM with the B-2A have previously been publicly disclosed, even by Congressional budget sheets.

The 200-300 mile range of the LRASM combined with the stealth of the B-2A will give the USAF new capabilities in anti-ship warfare. The B-2A will likely be capable of carrying 16 LRASMs simultaneously, meaning the already highly survivable aircraft will be able to engage several naval ships or conduct a mass launch against one or a few ships simultaneously at long range.
