  2. The key here is that B-1, B-2 and B-52 were all built with specialized technology for each bomber The B-21 uses commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) from existing programs which greatly reduces its development cost B-1, B-2 and B-52 required a lot upgrades through out their lives for various weapons while the B-21 starts off fully compatible with all existing USAF weapons B-1, B-2 and B-52 all use unique engines while the B-21 borrows the F-35 F-135 engine B-1 and B-52 radars are variants from F-16s and F-18s while the B-2 has its own unique radar The B-21 again borrows from the F-35 APG-81 by borrowing from modern programs, they don't spend as much Now if they spent the time and money using all unique tech, its likely the cost would be closer to the B-2
