That MC-130 from the 193rd SOW flew to Davis-Monthan the other day and then to Hurburt. This could be their first mission with the MC-130’s.

NH31 landed at Solberg, NH32 followed but looks like they are turning around after confirming NH31 was "on deck"?

EDIT: Nevermind, looks like NH32 actually followed 31 into Solberg.

I feel like 30 tankers is a lot for just giving an extra option but…

1630- Reach 412 (C-17) calling Langley CP (251.25)

1635- Hearing acft on 123.225 which is Northrop freq. ADS-B not showing any Northrop acft up. Pilot is using Navy terminology.

My guess on the tanker situation is that they are needed to fill the gap of the Tel Aviv refinery. In blow to Israel's energy lifeline, Iranian missile strikes key Israeli refinery - Egypt Independent

F-22s and F-35s deploying to the Gulf in the next 48 hours ....

F-22s and F-35s deploying to the Gulf in the next 48 hours ....

Makes sense, been seeing the C17s in and out of Langley.

GOLD24 making their way out of Salt Lake east…..

F-22s and F-35s deploying to the Gulf in the next 48 hours ....

F-22's almost seem useless overseas as Iran Air Force has had it.
F-35's have better bombing capabilities and fighter com tech etc.
I figured more F-15E's would fit better but I'm not the Air Force secretary LOL.

Looks like RCH-432 C-17 #06-6157 from Travis inbound Langley... F-22's are it

Couple more G-7 guests coming NW from Brazil.. They want in too.
