The United States Air Force has deployed an advanced RC-135V Rivet Joint signal intelligence aircraft to Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, amid rising tensions with Iran.
The aircraft from Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska on January 27 and stopped at RAF Mildenhall before arriving at Al Udeid.
The RC-135W is the standard airborne signal intelligence platform for the U.S. Air Force. It was developed by a number of companies, including General Dynamics, Lockheed, LTV, E-Systems and L3 Technologies.
The aircraft’s sensor suite allows the mission crew to detect, identify and geolocate signals throughout the electromagnetic spectrum. The mission crew can then forward gathered information in a variety of formats to a wide range of consumers via Rivet Joint’s extensive communications suite.

Earlier this month, U.S. President Trump threatened military action if Iran killed protesters or carried out mass executions of prisoners, but he backed down soon after, claiming the Islamic Republic halted the hangings of 800 detainees. Still, he ordered the deployment of additional U.S. military assets into the Middle East, including aircraft, air defenses, in addition to an aircraft carrier and several warships.
According to a recent Reuters report, Trump is now weighing options against Iran that include targeted strikes on security forces and leaders to inspire protesters, with the aim of creating conditions for “regime change”.
The deployment of the RC-13V at this time suggests that Trump is moving closer towards ordering an attack, although a decision may still be a few weeks away.
A similar aircraft began operating off the coast of Venezuela just weeks before Trump ordered a special operation to capture President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, from Caracas.

my my prediction for the war: iran loses badly at the beginning, many of its leaders will be killed at the beginning. it will lose some territory too. probably even a so-called regime change at the beginning, with internal chaos/confusion. but then the real war starts and usa will be removed from the middle east, completely and forever.
trump does it anyway, because he is stupid enough to fall for netanyahu. he is also extorted by mossad/netanyahu with thr epstein files. he will go in history as the most stupid president of the usa.

سوريا: مصادر محلية: طيران تابع للاحتلال الإسرائيلي يرش مواد مجهولة فوق الأراضي الزراعية بعدة قرى وبلدات في ريف القنيطرة الأوسط والشمالي
are they testing for a virus or chemical weapons?
considering that it is the main water source that also supplies iran and israel, i think samson was very smart compared to these people.
taking into account what trump revealed and the testimony of the venezuelan guard, it is safe to assume that the u.s. military employed multiple systems at the same time to facilitate its operation in caracas. attributing all of these effects to a single system is unrealistic.

netanyahu and trump are two sides of the same coin
like you and ramses narrative etcera so many new names in the stream of ramses rhetoric today n
everyone who loves democracy is an “americunt”, as you call them.
he just hates. pretty much the world basically
said nothing of the sort you inbred miscreant.
did dump deliberately free isis from sdf? or is putler’s gay lover, the head of al qaeda, afraid of lindsey graham because graham told him he would kill him with a drone if he slaughtered and beheaded just ten more kurdish female soldiers?
ramses you really are overdoing the credibility. you ve been too long in your little clique of your own compositions and now are believing in your own propganda.
does it rely on starlink? now that would be funny if the answer is yes and the satellite goes down.
would it be funny? really. would it omg.
time for iran to make sure the rc-135 needs an extra few million rivets to fly again.
time for you take a serious look at the quality of comment.
says the khazar inbred
donald trump’s distraction. gpt-5.3 shall save us from this regime.

only with underage chicks.
that’s all. no drinking or smoking.
it really doesn’t mean a whole lot that the usadmin has done this or that. the us is heading for the consequences of the last century of warmongering. the people of the us are vaguely aware of the drop in the standard of living. in response the usadmins banned household gardens and denied anyone vital vitamens during ‘covid’. the truth is out there. one just needs to believe what one sees and disregard what one hears.
esp when reading your opinion imo
the usadmin can do what they want, but it make no difference. the us are a failing empire. nothing can stop this. the decisive decisions will be done with missiles and not aircraft carriers. there will be no us grunts on the ground in iran and since the usadmin ‘regime change’ has failed several times, it will be down to missiles. who reaches who first? i say the iranian gov’t is way ahead.
when missiles start to make the us homeland, good luck spinning that one.
look petey ramses american empire narrative for vanyas trolling along with a menage eg trois of names in your little red wagon for lenin, your as obvious as the so called votes from the one man band called sf. imo allegedly
