US Conducting Nuclear Exercises in Europe with B-2A Spirit Bombers

The United States is currently conducting nuclear exercises in Europe. Two B-2A Spirit strategic bombers from the US Air Force have entered European airspace, accompanied by British tanker aircraft. Initial reports suggested that this incident was linked to French nuclear training; however, it has since been clarified that the bombers are participating in routine SKYMASTER maneuvers.

Sources indicated that British tankers were deployed to refuel the American bombers. “The British tankers took off likely to refuel the two B-2s that departed the US several hours ago. The bombers are about to enter European airspace,” a message stated at 11:00 AM.

There was also mention of the French Air Force conducting a nuclear exercise called “Poker,” with some speculation that the deployment of the B-2s was related to these maneuvers. However, this theory was later disproven.

Details regarding the call signs and coordinates of the aircraft remain undisclosed for security reasons. The SKYMASTER exercise focuses on practicing strategic operations in the Atlantic and Europe.
