This is the biggest disappointment. A B-2 without stealth mission systems is just a heavy glider. You cannot:
For the U.S. Air Force, the B-2 flight simulator is a critical asset. Because there are only 19 B-2s currently in service and the cost per flight hour is astronomical, simulator time is where pilots practice: Long-Duration Missions
A realistic must replicate this "relaxed stability." If you turn off the flight computer in a high-fidelity sim, the plane should tumble out of the sky within seconds. This is the first hurdle that separates a toy from a true simulator.
In the pantheon of modern military aviation, few aircraft capture the imagination quite like the Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit. With its iconic flying wing design, radar-evasive stealth coating, and a price tag that once exceeded $2 billion per airframe, the "Spirit" is less an airplane and more a piece of science fiction made real. For the average aviation enthusiast, sitting in the cockpit of a real B-2 is an impossible dream—restricted to a handful of Whiteman Air Force Base pilots.
For enthusiasts, several developers have translated the B-2’s complex fly-by-wire systems and unique geometry into home-use simulators.
Developing a realistic B-2 flight simulator poses several challenges:
