US EditionUS B-2 Bombers Launch Mission Against Iran in Operation Epic Fury
Operation Epic Fury uses B-2 bombers to target Iranian threats and prevent capability rebuilding amid ongoing regional strikes and the recent loss of a US refueling aircraft.
- On Mar 14, 2026, United States Central Command said B-2 stealth bombers launched during Operation Epic Fury to deliver long-range firepower 'eliminating threats' from Iran's regime.
- Operation Epic Fury aims to dismantle Iran's security apparatus and prioritise locations posing imminent threats, CENTCOM said to prevent the Iranian regime from rebuilding military capabilities.
- All six crew members aboard a US KC-135 Stratotanker refuelling aircraft died after it crashed in western Iraq on March 12, but CENTCOM said the loss was not from hostile or friendly fire and is under investigation.
- Hangzhou-Based Jingan Technology claims its Jingqi AI detected B-2 Spirit stealth bomber radio signals and reconstructed flight paths during a March 1, 2026 strike, though the claim remains unverified.
- The B-2's operational reach combined with logistics means support movements and basing at Whiteman AFB show how deployments can be revealed.
