The Hidden Secrets of the B-2: The World’s Deadliest Stealth Bomber

Another key element in its invisibility is the management of its heat signature. Jet engines typically produce immense heat, which can be tracked by infrared sensors. But the B-2 has a sophisticated exhaust system that cools its engine emissions before releasing them into the atmosphere. This makes it nearly impossible for heat-seeking missiles to track it. Its engines are also embedded within the aircraft body and designed to operate quietly, reducing both sound and thermal footprints.
