Should have built 5 or 6 mockups of Tom Cruise's Darkstar with A/A missiles and had them there instead.

Intersting that the E3s are orbiting NW and W of Anchorage. Then again they may be squawking becasue of where they are. The others...

At ~1440 EDT, on Liveatc.net, Elmendorf Tower reported there were possible 3 aircraft in trail of the Il-96 with Putin but not confirmed. Tower was providing a couple of airborne helos nearby, ICY82 (H60) and "Huntsman", likely Alaska State Trooper A550, which are on CAP

Now confirmed 4 aircraft in trail

Yes exactly - the HUNTSMAN aircraft is hiding in the hills out of view - interesting activity to not be spotted

DEATH 11 is inbound for the flyover.....B2 flyover ???
The tower controller seemed unsure of the identity and type of the trail aircraft. I would like to think it is the good guys sending a message.

If it is a B2 that would be sending a message...Hey Vlad, we can redesign the Kremlin for you just like we did for Iranian nuclear facilities.

B2 and either F22 or F35 in the flyover (did not see the actual type)
