Message To Iran: U.S. B-52s Operated Alongside Israeli F-35Is
Story by Peter Suciu • 18h
Multiple B-52H bombers took flight from the British Isles to the Middle East last week accompanied by Israeli aircraft. A move which will not go unnoticed by Iran’s top brass.
Four United States Air Force Boeing B-52 Stratofortress long-range strategic bombers were deployed to Royal Air Force (RAF) Fairford in the UK last month as part of the Bomber Task Force (BTF) Europe 25-2 mission, the second such deployment of 2025.
The aircraft from the 69th Expeditionary Bomb Squadron, Minot Air Force Base (AFB), North Dakota, flew southbound accompanied by Israeli aircraft.
One of the bombers took part in the third sortie to the Middle East from the UK base in Gloucestershire earlier this week. It was operating with RAF aircraft based in the Mediterranean before integrating with Israeli Air Force F-15I Ra'am and F-35I Adir fighters.
The length of the operation and the total miles flown are unknown, but it reportedly involved around a dozen fighters as well as refueling aircraft.
