As President Trump says he ‘does not need’ the UK, a fleet of B-1 aircraft, capable of enforcing 34 tonnes of explosives sit at UK airbase RAF Fairford.
The bombers, which cost up to $2 billion each, are coming from the Dyess Air Force Base and will join more stealth bombers at RAF Fairford.
The Ministry of Defence confirmed the US started using British bases for “specific defensive operations to prevent Iran firing missiles into the region” after American bombers landed at a Gloucestershire base.
A first 146ft B-1 Lancer arrived at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire on Friday evening and three more followed on Saturday morning.
A Merlin helicopter is also being sent to the region to help with surveillance from the air and RAF Typhoon and F-35 jets are continuing air operations over Jordan, Qatar and Cyprus.
It comes as sources believe Donald Trump’s mega-attack on Iran, dubbed the “big one”, is imminent – amid Iran going up in flames overnight in devastating US and Israeli strikes.
