A B-2 Spirit Bomber, one bearing tail number 89-0129 and known as the Spirit of Georgia, was heavily damaged at Whiteman Air Force Base on September 14, 2021, when a hydraulic failure resulted in emergency gear extension as the left main-gear lock failed. The landing gear collapsed upon landing, scraping the wing. This ultimately made the process of getting the jet back into combat shape much more complicated than a simple patch job.
