The last week we’ve tracked an USAF Boeing RC-135U making a surveillance mission off western Libya.
Today the same aircraft is making a similar mission this time off all Libyan coast.

The USAF Boeing RC-135U (reg. 64-14849 – callsign HOOCH09) left this morning Souda bay AB southbound at 07:21 CEST transmitting a fake hexcode (89FF8C).

The RC-135U made its surveillance mission off Benghazi but also over the Sirte Gulf flying always in the international airspace.

The aircraft made a passage also off Tripoli before returning to make its mission of eastern Libya.
