Ready and Postured: B-2 Spirit integrates with NATO ally at Lajes

Three B-2 Spirits, assigned to Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, hot-pit refuel during a Bomber Task Force mission at Lajes Field, Azores, March 16, 2021. Lajes Field is key to U.S., NATO and international security efforts. It is a key communication node that provides weather, telephone, email and internet coverage to aircraft, closing a coverage gap across the Atlantic Ocean, as well as the USAF's second largest fuel reserve capability.
