Since yesterday the JASDF is in the process of deploying some fighters to the UK (and later Germany) and I've been watching them on ADS-B! :biggrin:
There are two Kawasaki C-2s, two KC-767J tankers and a private KC-10 tanker, plus the F-15s. Pic related are the C-2s approaching Alaska at about 1a.m. UTC. A few more to follow! :mona2:

Bristol Bay! And Nunivak is the little island to the north of the two planes. There's 191 people living there, but that number is from the 2010 census. 15 years later, I wonder how many still remain. :glare:

The tankers are west of Anchorage now and coverage is a little spotty. They should touch down at Eielson AFB, Fairbanks in about 2 hours or so; I'll post then.

Seems like a very quiet place :nyaoo:

>Fairbanks in about 2 hours or so
Maybe if I can catch them flying outside, I can snap a photo of them. If I get lucky. (´人`)

That would be super cool! :astonish:
They're a little closer than I thought, haha There'll be three tankers and probably the F-15s too since they'll need the tankers to cross the pacific.

A C-2 took off about 20 minutes ago. It should be heading for CFB Goose Bay (Canadian airbase)!

The C-2s are now well on their way to Canada, this screenshot is where they were last seen 30 minutes ago. There should be two but one of them cannot be found on ADSB for some reason. 🍁

The C-2s haven't been picked up for 2.5 hours now and their last known position is the same as last screenshot, so they might have landed now or very soon :nyaoo-closedeyes:

Might see the tankers take off early tomorrow morning or afternoon but after that we won't be able to see them until they reach the UK (Tomorrow) due to bad ADSB coverage :cry:
