Air Force Begins B-52 Upgrades | Defense Tech:
"The Air Force is reaching milestones with its ongoing effort to upgrade and modernize the B-52 bomber, an iconic workhorse battle-tested aircraft first built in the 1960s, service officials said.

The service is making progress with efforts to upgrade the electronics and communications technology of the B-52 aircraft and also moving along with an initiative to configure the aircraft with the ability to carry up to eight J-Series precision-guided weapons internally – in addition to carrying six weapons on each wing, Air Force officials said."
