Don't the same restrictions apply to the EB-52? A BUFF can go *many* places an EC-130 can't. So if we must reduce the total numbers of heavy bombers in order to put a bigger crew than the Growler's at risk, why not a B-1B based jammer? A BUFF can go anywhere a Bone can go, the Bone has AC power issues and the EB-52 will not lose the capability to drop weapons, not even a reduction in load out. The Lancer has basic stealth and the ability to run away at supersonic speed when the situation gets too hot. The BUFF has a much higher altitude capability and an already robust ECM suite.
