Yep that's the one. Night sorties it does not show up on ADSB nor FR24, operates completely dark (no nav's, no beacon, no strobe), but you'll hear them on radio generally getting 10-15nm orbits from various fixed points around the city at around 10,000ft. The 'groups' on FB that track aircraft in ADL hate talking about it for some reason like they'll have their house raided, but are more than happy to demand to know military movements
