#BREAKING โ€“ Two US KC-46A tankers arrived in Hawaii just moments ago. A British tanker also landed at Darwin Air Force Base, in northern Australia.

The deployment of tankers in this area usually indicates that the US is preparing to move something heavy to the Indo-Pacific/Middle East area of โ€‹โ€‹operations. An identical deployment was first seen when the US then moved six B-2 bombers to Diego Garcia. The Pacific route is preferred over the Atlantic because it requires far fewer air clearances from countries.

U.S. WEAPONS DELIVERED TO ISRAEL VIA BELGIUM

A shipment of American weapons was delivered to Israel today aboard a B747 cargo plane operated by Challenge Cargo, an Israeli shipping company based at Liรจge Airport in Belgium

A source said the weapons initially arrived from the United States to Liรจge on a plane operated by the American cargo airline Kalitta Air.

The shipment was then unloaded and transferred at the airport to a Challenge Cargo aircraft, which later departed for Tel Aviv.

Astonishingly, this transfer took place despite an official Belgian government decision banning the export of ammunition and weapons to Israel, a policy announced months ago as part of Belgiumโ€™s stance against Israeli military operations in Gaza.

Iran Vs Israel: There has never been such an unprecedented concentration of aircraft carriers: the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ is planning to send its fourth aircraft carrier to the #MiddleEast

This could be the USS George Washington (CVN-73), which is currently in the Pacific Ocean near Japan.


In addition, 8 of the 12 modern F-22 Raptor fighters have already been deployed there.

Current US Air Force strength in the Middle East from various US Air Forces:
โ€ข 48 F-15SE Strike Eagles
โ€ข 48 F-16C/D Block-60 Fighting Falcons
โ€ข 22 F-35A/B Lightning IIs
โ€ข 12 A-10 Thunderbolt IIs

The USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70, Nimitz-class) aircraft carrier strike group is in the Arabian Sea, with its carrier strike group, and currently carries the following:
โ€ข 24 F/A-18E Super Hornets
โ€ข 12 F/A-18F Super Hornets
โ€ข 12 F-35C Lightning IIs
โ€ข 12 EA-18G Growlers

The aircraft carrier USS Nimitz (CVN-68) and its strike group will arrive in a few days to join the crew of the aircraft carrier Vinson, carrying:
โ€ข 24 F/A-18E Super Hornets
โ€ข 24 F/A-18F Super Hornets
โ€ข 12 EA-18G Growlers

It's also worth noting that between 12 and 18 F-22A Raptors are currently en route to the Middle East, in addition to between 6 and 12 other aircraft for aerial refueling. In the past 24 hours, six additional KC-46 Pegasus aircraft have departed from air bases on the West Coast, apparently bound for Hawaii before heading elsewhere. These aircraft are also likely headed for Diego Garcia.
