Following the fuel: how the world tracked the B-2 diversion flights
- perilunar 1y agoThe tankers were visible but the bombers weren't: > At no point were the B-2s visible on Flightradar24, they did not broadcast ADS-B or Mode S, the signals our network is capable of receiving.

Why the need for the westward diversion flight when they could have all stayed hidden?
