The US just lost nearly 5% of the B-2 fleet. CNN has a story here.
The story has a serious error of tense, however. The line, "Each B-2 bomber costs about $1.2 billion to build" is a grave error. It implies that we could just pony up another $1.2 Billion and acquire another.
Not so, the production line is shut down and each B-2 is now irreplaceable.
