[MilCom] RAIDER 22/23 Super Post (06/11/12)

Hi Everyone,

As I'm sure that most of you are aware of, there are currently two B-52 bombers out of Barksdale AFB (KBAD) that are being refueled in AR-20 over Nova Scotia. The callsigns are RAIDER 22 (reg #61-0008) and RAIDER 23 (reg #61-0012). Both are returning from a GLOBAL POWER mission , BALTOPS 2012, that has been taking place over Lithuania since last Friday. 


For more info on BALTOPS 2012, click this link.

Also, multiple threads have sprung up in response to the RAIDER flight:

FWIW, I've been recording the audio from the AR-20 stream but, have only heard random blips. I'll be posting what I was able to get later on this evening (EST).

For all of those fellow milair enthusiasts in the UK/US who have been working hard to get an ID on the RAIDER flight, we tip our collective hat to you!
