More B1 bombers arrive in Europe, after being flanked by Russian fighters 🇺🇸 ✈️ 🇷🇺

Two more Rockwell B-1B Lancers of the US Air Force arrive in the UK during a deployment of bombers to Europe; after they were intercepted by Russian fighter jets while on a NATO deterrence mission in the Baltic Sea. This came just two days after a similar interaction by different B-1s on the same deployment to Europe. Watch that video here: • Large planes support t...

The supersonic bomber planes (nicknamed 'Bones') of the 9th Bomb Squadron from Dyess Air Force Base, Texas, landed at RAF Fairford, a bomber airfield for the US Air Forces in Europe. They joined two other Lancers that arrived days earlier, bringing the total so far to four B-1 Lancers deployed for Bomber Task Force 23-3 in the European theater.

[@dom9882]

Still a fantastic looking aircraft given it first took to the skies in 1974!

[@LRRPFco52]

Yup. The first model was the B-1A, which was Mach 2 capable. A Senator from Delaware who got into the Senate with funny money from the Soviets got on a crusade to kill the B-1A as soon as he got back from meeting with his financiers in Leningrad in 1973. From '73 to '77, he pushed hard to cancel the B-1A program, which finally happened under Carter's first year in office in 1977. Carter's CIA Director had been recruited into the CIA by a Soviet double agent, who was one of the original moles from the 1940s. The Senator's name, you ask? Joseph Biden When Reagan campaigned in 1980, he promised to revive the program, which then became B-1B. We were on the B-1B Combined Test Force at Edwards AFB from 1983-1985. Our test birds consisted of 4 original B-1A prototypes, in various configurations that were not uniform. Rollout of the first production B-1B was later up at Rockwell's area of Plant 42. I remember it well.

Awesome aircraft, beautiful design. They are magic too. I saw one appear and disappear. I worked at an air base as a civilian and where we worked was off to one side of the main airport runway but there was an old hanger and taxi areas but there were never aircraft anywhere near there in the 6+ years I worked there. Came into work one morning and right next to our fence was a B-1B. I was blown away seeing this just be there one day. We got to go look at it, from the outside only. This was in about 1989 maybe? The aircraft had it's own crew and security detail. Was a great experience seeing it up close and as one commenter said, it is a big aircraft in person. 2 days later went to work and it was pppft.....gone lol.

[@bobnewkirk7186]

[@CobraEmergency]

@David-fg7ko The XB70 was an incredible aircraft, but by the time the prototypes were built, they were already obsolete by better defence systems in the USSR. Just goes to show how fast technology changed during the Cold War. The B1 almost didn't go ahead. There are, of course, other purposes for conventional bombers so they still keep them around (for now).

We're lucky here to get all 3 types of bombers deploying to this airfield, with easy access all around it you can't miss them. You can go right up and see them by the fence. Once a year it opens it's gates for the Royal International Air Tattoo, and if you're lucky sometimes the aircraft that deploy here are parked in the static display for you to get real up close and personal. You'd be better off going by Dyess in TX than Ellsworth, you can see them out on the deck from the main road. It's a fair old drive though 😂

[@JoeyBlogs007]

Looked a little dangerous for them to be landing so closely together. If the second jet had landing problems, it could have veered off the runway and crashed into the other jet. I think that's an unnecessary risk not worth taking and easily avoided by greater separation. At least another 10 seconds separation.

I have been past fairford many, many times and no it isn't, fairford is pretty much flanked by busy roads on at least two sides and there is no official viewing area unlike some other bases, but there is places where you can sometimes pull up to view the incoming aircraft, but some of the nearby quieter roads actually have better views than when you are right up by the base, because you can't really see the aircraft facilities from most roads and the runway is one of the longest in the UK so sometimes being a bit further away is actually better especially when the bombers are taking off and landing because the entire ground just shakes as they roll down the runway and just after take off, they are seriously loud to the point that they have previously shattered windows nearby which had to be replaced with triple pane and/or bulletproof glass depending upon the location of the property in relation to the airfield, fairford is definitely unique, I remember when air force one landed there!!!!!
