​​​​​​​Bomber Mission 58 - Snide Spirits #FreeIran!

--- Operation EPIC FURY ---

Alongside the single B-1 mission from RAF Fairford (EGVA) yesterday (6th April 2026), the US mainland saw the launch of 3x B-2A "Spirit" bombers to Iran as part of
#OperationEpicFury. These bombers kept an even lower profile than normal during their transit, with very few of their supporting tankers appearing on tracking apps at all! All 3 B-2s are now back over the Atlantic heading home.

This is now the 5th B-2A mission tracked from Whiteman AFB since US bombers deployed to RAF Fairford in early-March.
