The stealth jet is a B2 spirit jet, radar cannot detect it Can fly up to 11,000 km continuously, 19,000 km when refuelingAfter the ISIS training camp, Houthi underground bases are now being attacked
New Delhi. Houthi rebels have wreaked havoc in the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea. America has now deployed its perfect weapon against the Houthi rebels, who are severely disrupting international trade. His precise target and lethal ability can be seen from the fact that even the underground hideouts of the Houthi rebels were destroyed by his attack. It is a B2-Spirit stealth bomber that is beyond radar range. The peculiarity of this jet is that the enemy begins to ask for water as soon as he finds out about it. After the destruction of the ISIS training camp, a B2 Spirit bomber was used for the first time.
Houthi rebels have caused turmoil along the world’s largest energy route, the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The warships of America and its allies, as well as commercial vessels in or transiting through the area, are under constant attack by drones and missiles from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen. The American Central Command has also opened its front to provide an appropriate response. Against this background, America deployed one of its bombers, the most dangerous long-range aircraft in the world. The Central Command said in a statement that the B2 Spirit bomber simultaneously struck several underground weapons facilities belonging to the Iran-backed Houthi rebels. From here, advanced conventional weapons were fired at American and international ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The US Air Force and the US Navy took part in this operation. What’s special is that the Air Force’s B2-Spirit long-range stealth bomber was also used. The statement clearly states that this attack was so precise that it only hit the targets from which the Houthis had previously attacked.

B2 Spirit Bomber is something special
In the 1980s and 1990s, America adopted B2 Spirit bombers into the Air Force and have since proven their capability in large missions. What is special is that the B2 Spirit bomber was used in an active operation at the bases of the Houthi rebels in Yemen after almost 6 years. According to the report, it was last used at the ISIS training camp in Libya in 2017. As for its peculiarity, it can cover a distance of 11,000 kilometers continuously at an altitude of 50,000 feet. After refueling in the air, this bomber can travel another 19,000 kilometers. His debut took place during the 1998–99 Kosovo War. Afterwards, this happened in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. In Pakistan there was a plan to first kill Osama Bin Laden. Thermonuclear and conventional munitions can be easily fired from the bomber. Due to its aerodynamic design, this bomber remains out of range of enemy radar.
Siege by Houthi rebels
Three US warships were recently attacked. This attack was carried out as the warships moved from the Gulf of Aden towards the Red Sea. The guided-missile destroyers USS Murphy, USS Frank E. Petersen Jr, USS Spruance and USS Stockdale are currently operating in the Red Sea. In addition, the use of its aircraft in America was also increased in the event of an Iranian attack on Israel. Recently, U.S. Central Command deployed three additional aircraft squadrons to the region. There is a squadron consisting of an F-15E, an F-16 and an A-10. A total of 54 aircraft were used. A squadron has arrived. Previously, the F-22 Raptor was only deployed to the area in August. In addition to repelling Houthi and Iranian airstrikes from Yemen, this American deployment also serves to support the American army stationed in the Middle East. There are currently 2,500 American soldiers deployed in Iraq and 900 in Syria.
