B-21 Homer, in honor of Homer Simpson. Maybe we can even cut a sponsorship deal with Fox in exchange for painting them Simpson's yellow.

We'll be bombing alien planets with B-52s equipped with nuclear rocket engines. (Which still smoke.)

After they change the constitution so Murdoch chooses the president directly, maybe we can have nose art on bombers. Even if it is only the Simpsons.

Unofficially, I'm pretty sure. And it's gone now, it was retired when Sweden ratified the Convention on Cluster Munitions.

Tourists and kids get to be into Viking stuff without being weird, but if you're Swedish and a Viking history buff, or the kind of person who wears a small silver hammer in a leather cord as a necklace, that does come with a rather stale smell of "patriotism" (and if you call yourself a patriot in Sweden you're pretty much saying you're a neonazi). Or you could just be a metalhead I guess, but the Viking-inspired parts of that scene does tend to lean towards, uh, well, white power.

19th century nationalists ruined everything.

Far as I know, the Swedish AF calls it that semi-officially? Thing is though, the bk90 itself is in semi-permanent storage facing outright decommission since the cluster weapons ban treaty anyway. Ergo the people who would be very upset/TRIGGERED! by the name have bigger fights to fight now. Me personally? Sure, I can see a problem in naming stuff in a way that makes people associate you with the holocaust deniers. No point to that headache.

B-21 Thanos is almost as good as -21 LeMay.

E:Thanks Fluff!

In the US, it just means you're kinda weird, like pagans and white people who overly care about their ethnic heritage.

Is there a Scandi equivalent for a weeb? Sweeaboo? Nortaku?
