RAMSTEIN AIR BASE, Germany (AFNS) --  

U.S. Air Force B-52H Stratofortress aircraft arrived at Morón Air Base, Spain, May 20, as part of the latest Bomber Task Force Europe deployment.

The task force will test and demonstrate Agile Combat Employment concepts, operating from smaller, more flexible locations across Europe and Africa.

“Bomber Task Force Europe is a clear signal of peace through the strength of airpower,” said Lt. Gen. Jason T. Hinds, United States Air Forces in Europe - Air Forces Africa deputy commander. “This BTF deployment will ensure our forces remain resilient, dynamic and capable of responding to evolving security challenges with speed and precision.”

This deployment underscores the United States’ commitment to global security and homeland defense, and highlights our ability to rapidly project agile, combat-ready airpower across dynamic environments.
