A Bomber Task Force deployment of U.S. Air Force B-2 Spirit stealth bombers, Airmen, and support equipment from the 131st and 509th Bomb Wings, Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, began at Royal Australian Air Force Base Amberley, Australia, on August 16, 2024.

United States strategic bombers can operate in the Indo-Pacific region from a broad array of overseas and continental U.S. locations with significant operational resilience.

This deployment supports Pacific Air Forces’ training efforts with allies, partners, joint forces, and strategic deterrence missions to reinforce the rules-based international order.

The Pacific Air Forces seek every opportunity to train alongside allies and partners to demonstrate interoperability and bolster collective ability to support a free and open Indo-Pacific.
