U.S. B-2 Bombers Observed in Transit, Likely Toward Guam – No Official Deployment Announced
On June 21, 2025, six U.S. Air Force B-2 stealth bombers were observed departing Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, accompanied by aerial refueling tankers. Based on flight-tracking data and analysis by defense aviation watchers, the aircraft are likely heading to Andersen Air Force Base in Guam.

There is no official confirmation from the Pentagon or the White House regarding any deployment or operational mission. The movements appear consistent with strategic repositioning rather than a declared offensive action.
The B-2 is capable of carrying the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) — a 30,000-pound bunker-busting bomb designed for hardened underground targets. The timing of these movements coincides with growing regional tension, particularly regarding Iran’s fortified nuclear facility in Fordow, which lies approximately 80–90 meters underground.
This flight activity follows earlier B-2 bomber rotations to Diego Garcia in April 2025, a U.S. base within operational range of the Middle East.
