It's Cruise Missiles. These Bombers don't need to pass over their targets anymore. They'll just launch their payload a couple of hundred Miles away from the intended target and the Missiles will navigate towards them on their own. Anything else would be suicide in a non-pacified airspace anyway. Still, we should follow Spain and Austria and lock our airspace for US Military Flights until further notice.

B-52s have been cruise missile carriers since the hound dog missile days. Ideally dumb bomb dropping in Vietnam was more effective than cruise missiles.

even the bombs mostly now will have jdam kits?
View on Reddit #82717109

TurnoverMysterious64@reddit

JDAMs in general increase accuracy by adding GPS/INS guidance to a dumb bomb, but they don’t necessarily do much to increase the range. Most show a range of 13mi/24km with a couple ER (extended range) variants showing a range of 39mi/72km. That’s not enough to safely hit ground targets in areas where air supremacy hasn’t been achieved.

Even a 172 out with a student pilot (you can hear the difference 😂) I'm about 20 miles from KMIA, 5 miles from KTMB and about 20 miles from an Air Force base. They fly over constantly on weekends going out over the water to do runs. KC135s and KC46s are common when they are out practicing fueling. Sometimes we can catch them during the summer out over the water running the drills. It's so cool But to see this group and to know they are being staged to take innocent lives is horrible.
