US Air Force B-52H Stratofortress heavy long-range bombers, powerful weapons of war, have made multiple flights through the East and South China Seas this month.
These flights are part of US Indo-Pacific Command's Continuous Bomber Presence mission, which aims to strengthen America's deterrence in the face of emerging threats.
News of these flights comes on the heels of a Pentagon report that China's bombers are increasingly active in the region, often pushing the limits to project power at greater distances.
