Global Thunder: Bombers practice for nuclear war
Stephen Losey
U.S. Strategic Command forces, including bombers such as the B-52 Stratofortress, on Tuesday began the annual nuclear command and control exercise known as Global Thunder.
STRATCOM, in a Monday news release, said Global Thunder 21 provides “realistic training activities against simulated targets†to allow forces to train in all mission areas, but particularly focusing on nuclear readiness.
It also involves personnel from the U.K. and Australia, who became part of senior leadership teams and provide experience on subjects including policy support, deterrence and information operations.
