    It says Air Force refueling planes so technically not war planes. Not a chance actual military planes are trackable.

      I live near a big refueling base in the US and the tankers are usually trackable. Ditto for military cargo planes, Orions, and military passenger planes.

      What happens when they’re on their way to active deployments … that I don’t know.

        Flight plans for these day they are going to Europe. A bluff doesn’t really make sense in the context. Most likely we will assist Israel in controlling the airspace around Iran.
