When search efforts produce no evidence the bomber crashed, the US Air Force has no choice but to acknowledge that one of its most secret and high-tech aircraft has been hijacked. Recovery of the B-2 and its crew becomes the president's highest priority. The Kremlin claims no knowledge of the missing aircraft.
