There is nothing wrong with loving a plane. That includes the XB-70. I think its cool as hell. It's time is long since past though. That's fact.

Now John Boyd is rolling in his grave.
Here's the right plane for you then:
Fast (Mach 2.8+, though the airframe can survive at least Mach 3.2) and armed with an hypersonic standoff missile! Happy?

The deterrent forces use auxiliary generators and multiple, redundant communications channels. Also, SSBN are much more autonomous than a bomber could ever be.

If you look closely, you'll find the Tu-160 is just a larger version of the B-1.
The Soviets built it in response to the B-1 program, so no coincidence.
But I still think the Soviets would.have been better off with the T-4.
i dont know the full history of the 160 so
