"Seems possible if not probable that while every open-source reporter in the world was watching very public and eventually government-confirmed B-2 flights westward, a guy in his backyard in Missouri saw the real, undisclosed and untracked mission heading east..." -Evan Hill via X

'Months and Weeks'

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said the operation "took months and weeks of positioning and preparation," with General Caine further stating that "in a matter of weeks this went from strategic planning to global execution."

In the days before the strike, the USS Nimitz battle group was positioned as the third carrier strike group put in theater as an apparent back up. It arrived on June 20, right before the fireworks got started. The Nimitz joined the USS Carl Vinson and USS Gerald Ford.

Aircraft carriers are mini-cities with crews of more than 5,000 personnel, a full complement of aircraft, and other assets.

Last week on June 15 and 16, air tankers were prepositioned to Germany, Spain, and the Azores to refuel the bombers on their way to Iran.
