B-52 eastern Mediterranean Sea mission

This morning a couple of USAF Boeing B-52Hs (reg. 61-0018 & 60-0044) have departed from RAF Fairford.

When the two aircraft arrived over Hungary they separated.
After about an hour and a half they reunited off Greece and continued their flight to the south of Crete where they turned east.

They are now flying south of Cyprus to the east together with an RAF Airbus KC.2 (reg. ZZ333) as you can see inthe screenshot in the header of this page

The aircraft then refuelled over the Ionian Sea with two USAF KC-46As from NAS Rota

Before returning to the UK they made a final aerial refuelling over France.
