➡️ NITRO71 is the next cell of tankers

➡️ As observers noted, the B-2's needed to refuel shortly after takeoff, thus the bombers must be carrying something heavy, likely the aforementioned bunker busting bombs

🇺🇸🪖🗺 — GMI: B-2 stealth bombers under the callsigns MYTEE11 FLT and MYTEE21 FLT-estimated to include 4 to 6 stealth bombers-departed Whiteman Air Force Base overnight.

➡️ They are currently en route to Guam, now approaching Hawaiian airspace, supported by USAF aerial refueling tankers.

Key observations:
🔴 Immediate post-takeoff refueling was conducted, which strongly suggests the aircraft may be heavily loaded, potentially with ordnance, indicating operational intent.
🔴 Over the past several days, a deliberate aerial refueling bridge was established, with tankers pre-positioned along the flight path.
