The Rockwell (now part of Boeing) B-1 Lancer is a four-engine supersonic variable-sweep wing jet-powered strategic bomber used by the United States Air Force (USAF). It was first envisioned in the 1960s as a supersonic bomber with Mach 2 speed and sufficient range and payload to replace the Boeing B-52 Stratofortress.
