The numbers have fallen greatly since the end of the Cold War.  The SAC order of battle as of 1989:


B-52G   160 (PAA) bombers in 9 combat coded squadrons and 1 training squadron

B-52H   80 (PAA) Bombers in 5 combat coded squadrons

FB-111  60 (PAA) Bombers in 4 combat coded squadrons and 1 training squadron

B-1B      95 (PAA) Bombers in 5 combat coded squadrons and 1 training squadron


Total:     395 (PAA) Bombers in 23 combat coded squadrons and 3 training squadrons


Note in 89/90/91 the FB-111's became F-111G's and were given to TAC as the B-1B came online in 90/91
