What the fuck New York Times.

@aviationintel.bsky.social B-2 at Hickam Air Force Base this morning. Saw when flying out. Curious if the decoy flight only had one B-2 and this is it.

That’s my understanding. But even if they gave up all their material, given Japan’s advanced reprocessing and enrichment capabilities Japan could start churning out material in months. I have a chart of breakout timelines and I’ve been told it’s pretty conservative.

When I was young we had a Shih Tzu (DC area). It snowed significantly months after we got him and we took him to experience the snow. He didn’t like it. For years later we’d have to plow him a path from the door to the lawn and even clear snow from the lawn for him to go to the bathroom.

Going the fast path, it takes 6+ months to build a crude reprocessing facility, 2+ months to reprocess the fuel, and 1+ year to weaponize. That’s 20+ months and it’s not factoring in the impact of Russia constantly bombarding facilites.
