How about start developing new generation bombers that don't cost 1.2 billion dollars each ? The problem of having such costly bombers is twofold : first your fleet is very very little (I don't think 30 B-2 even exist) and second each unit you loose impacts financially and operationally on your fleet.
It has no economic nor rationale sense.
Tell me one thing that a B-2 can do that isn't possibile with a B-52 ?
Using a B-2 is like using the shuttle for putting a satellite into leo. Completely useless when their is alternative tecnology or existing tecnology that does the same thing for a fraction of the cost.
