DLA Aviation anticipates awarding a contract for material sourcing and engineering support for unprogrammed repair requirements driven by the B-2 composites workload. Composites are a vital component of the B-2 Spirit flight control surfaces and give the aircraft its low-observable characteristics, which give it the unique ability to penetrate an enemy's most sophisticated defenses. The B-2 is a multi-role, long-range, high altitude bomber, capable of flying intercontinental missions without refueling, then penetrating present and predicted sophisticated enemy defenses.
