Business Insider/The Aviationist: A curious looking B-21 Raider Stealth bomber patch just appeared on eBay
* Shortly after the Air Force announced that the B-21 would soon be tested, a B-21 Combined Test Force patch popped up on Ebay.
* Members of the Combined Test Force formulate the test program, develop the criteria for flight test missions, execute flight test missions, analyze data from the test flights, and report on the results.
*The Ebay seller said that he purchased the patch from Edwards AFB personnel who are standing up the testing of the new aircraft.
At least officially, there are no existing prototypes of the B-21 Raider, the U.S. Air Force's next stealth bomber built by Northrop Grumman and destined to replace the B-1 and B-2 fleets.
In 2016, Air Force Secretary Deborah Lee James revealed the first artist rendering of the Long Range Strike Bomber designated the B-21, at the Air Force Association's Air Warfare Symposium in Orlando, Florida, that showed a concept quite similar to the B-2's flying wing design; then, more recently, on Mar. 3, 2018, Brigadier General Carl Schaefer, Commander of the 412th Test Wing at Edwards Air Force Base, publicly announced that the aircraft will be tested at Edwards: "the B-21 is coming to Edwards and we will be testing it here in the near future," he said in his address at the Antelope Valley Board of Trade and Business Outlook Conference.
