Rather helpfully, the solo B-1B "Lancer" bomber from RAF Fairford (EGVA) (which is flying the 40th training mission from the base since the ceasefire began), has been broadcasting its location for all to see!

This route has been a fairly routine pattern for the training flights, and for many of the 62 bomber missions flown by B-1B and B-52H types during the war in Iran.
