B-2 Bombers Deployed Amid Heightened Iran Tensions
Two squadrons of B-2 stealth bombers, supported by eight KC-135 Stratotankers, departed Whiteman Air Force Base, likely heading toward Diego Garcia. This significant deployment, coinciding with a broader U.S. military repositioning in the Middle East, suggests a pre-planned, long-range operation. While no imminent strike is indicated, the deployment’s timing is noteworthy given current tensions surrounding Iran’s nuclear program. The B-2’s unique ability to target heavily defended, underground facilities makes this movement particularly significant.
