New Impossible
The B2 has insufficient propulsion to fly very fast. It can't even go supersonic - more like a commercial airliner. High thrust engines with afterburners are not consistent with stealth. You may be thinking of the B1, which is semi-stealthy and can fly very fast, but is more of a light attack bomber like the old B58 Hustler or earlier B47 Stratojet.

The B2 has one advantage not forseen when it was being designed - it can carry a lot of smart weapons, like a bloated F117. But that is not its designed mission, and against a capable opponent it would fail miserably in that role.
New Re: Impossible
But that is not its designed mission, and against a capable opponent it would fail miserably in that role.

And aircraft cariers would be useless against an enemy with submarines, but against an enemy that doesn't have them, quite effective.

As to "speed", it's strictly relative to how close to the ground you are.
