In this rare aerial footage, the coolest aircraft ever created looks even cooler.

Aerospace company Northrop Grumman posted a video of its B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, and it’s nuts. Only twenty of these things are around, so this kind of aerial footage of one in action is pretty rare. With a wingspan of 172 feet, it can fly up to 50,000 feet in the air and carry more than 40,000 pounds of munitions and weapons like gravity bombs. And its sleek black design makes it instantly recognizable, as well as totally otherworldly.
