TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Two B-1B supersonic heavy bombers were reported cruising the skies to the northeast of Taiwan on Wednesday (May 6), the third time this month they have patrolled the area.

The Twitter account Aircraft Spots at 3:44 p.m. on Wednesday announced that two variable-sweep wing B-1B Lancers took off from Andersen Air Force Base in Guam to carry out a mission in the East China Sea. The post added that a Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker also took part to provide inflight refueling.
