Ok I know the B-52 is big but for god's sake get up off your lazy @$$ and walk around the plane before taking off!! They do that on the little pointy nose planes. Its not like they were hidden in the bomb bay or anything they were hanging off the wings in plain view.

Perhaps it was the new B-52 stealth bomber and they just didn't see them ...

I'm sure the missles were supposed to be on the plane, just not with real warheads. The Air Force can't be that silly.
