The long-range bomber, expected to be involved in any conflict with Iraq, is the first of around nine believed to be arriving at RAF Fairford, although the Ministry of Defence has not yet given official confirmation that the aircraft will be stationed there. The B52 touched down at the base on the Gloucestershire and Wiltshire border this morning but an MoD spokesman insisted that the MoD could not comment on the movement of any US aircraft. |
