at least 15 kc-46a pegasus seen on the ground at lajes field in the azores, located in the northern atlantic roughly 900 miles from the coast of portugal, a major stopping-off point for aircraft on the way to bases in europe and the middle east from the americas.

Aerial-refueling tankers positioned at lajes could also potentially support long-range bombers heading towards iran, with tankers stationed at lajes providing refueling for the b-2s that struck iran’s nuclear sites last june in operation midnight hammer.
