Uncut military flight footage showing a USAF F-15E Strike Eagle releasing an inert B61 nuclear gravity bomb over the Tonopah Test Range, Nevada.
Conducted in joint coordination with Sandia National Laboratories and the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), this drop validates mechanical release mechanisms, spin stabilization, and aerodynamic performance under simulated strike conditions.
ABOUT THE INERT B61:
The inert B61 bomb is an exact structural duplicate of the live thermonuclear weapon. It contains all electronic flight systems, mechanical components, and ballast to replicate the mass distribution and aerodynamics of an operational nuclear bomb, with the radioactive warhead removed for safe live-drop certification.
