Iran Vs Israel: There has never been such an unprecedented concentration of aircraft carriers: the 🇺🇸 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:
• 48 F-15SE Strike Eagles
• 48 F-16C/D Block-60 Fighting Falcons
• 22 F-35A/B Lightning IIs
• 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:
• 24 F/A-18E Super Hornets
• 12 F/A-18F Super Hornets
• 12 F-35C Lightning IIs
• 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:
• 24 F/A-18E Super Hornets
• 24 F/A-18F Super Hornets
• 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.

🇺🇸✈️🇮🇷A group of #USAF B-2A Spirit strategic bombers, currently en route to the "#Iran's theater of operations," refueled in mid-air immediately after takeoff from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri.

This fact indicates that the planes took off with a full bomb load.

It is the
#B2A Spirit that is the primary carrier of the powerful #GBU57MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator) air bombs, designed to destroy deep-seated protected facilities, such as the #nuclear center in #Iran's Fordow.
