Given the cargo movements out of RAF Fairford (EGVA) in the last 48hrs as noted by @Saint1Mil, it does indeed appear that there will not be any further bomber deployments to the base in the near future... Roll on RIAT 2027!! @MATA_osint

US Bombers at Fairford - That's all Folks! #IranWar‌ Just over 7 months after they began arriving at RAF Fairford (EGVA), the last of the 29 US Air Force bombers deployed to the base have gone home. Over the coming weeks I'll release more of the in-depth data collected by MATA team members since March, but for now - a tribute to the aircraft that have dominated the skies over the south-west of England in the largest US overseas bomber deployment to Europe we'll likely ever see. 255 missions tracked - combat and training #OSINT @MATA_osint
