An article written in conjunction and with input from many former Air Force brass on the value of the B-21 and how critical it is to the US's future security, as well as the need to still keep most of the program classified.

Although to be fair, the Air Force retired brass probably have a vested interest onto the continuation in full of the B-21 program since a lot of them are paid consultants with some of the contractors working on the project.
It's also interesting that the Cold War concept of the nuclear triad has been expanded on to suit today's growing nuclear and non-nuclear threats, as seen in the separate link below.
