In the world of museums, receiving an accolade from the American Association of Museum’s Museum News is top notch. The National Museum of the US Air Force in Dayton, Ohio, has gotten such an honor, when it was mentioned, along with the likes of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Library of Congress, as a museum that “change the way one sees the world for a time.”
Expanded production of the B-21 bomber can be accomplished at Northrop Grumman's existing Palmdale, Calif., facilities, the Air Force said. It also said test aircraft will be so simular to the production version that early examples could be used in combat if called for.
