yeah its just off the coast of Virginia, near Richmond, should be in the Med by next week

yeah, but specifically there are a limited number of sites the B-2s operate from (picrel) - the US currently has 10 B2s based in DG. It's the closest to the area of operations, around 3500 miles, and B2s have a range of around 6000. its possible they could be flown all the way from Whiteman, but that would need 2 aerial refuellings
so reason I bring it up is because, if the US is going to get involved with some major bombing, the chances are it'll involve B2s coming from DG. The bunker busters (GBU 57/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator) are around 30,000lb and the planes can only carry 2, so it'll be a limited run with very specific targets
