B-3 HERMES
Tactical Strike Bomber
The B-3 HERMES is a modern tactical strike bomber designed for rapid response, mission flexibility, and precision strike operations. Smaller and more agile than the B-4 TALOS, HERMES fills the critical gap between heavy bombers and strike fighters.
With a balanced power-to-weight ratio and an efficient aerodynamic structure, the B-3 HERMES is capable of executing deep strike missions, rapid-response bombing, and medium-range precision attacks with high survivability.
This aircraft is optimized to neutralize high-value targets, support joint air–ground operations, and pave the way for heavier bomber assets in contested airspace.
