Barely visible in the darkness of the night, a B-2 Spirit takes fuel from a KC-135 on its way to the Arctic Circle. The stealth bomber looks like a UFO in these shots. Story here:

This Close Up Photograph of the B-2 Spirit Provides A Fantastic View On The Stealth Bomber's Air Data Ports:

The U.S. Air Force has just released some interesting photographs of one of the B-2 Spirit bombers deployed to RAF Fairford, UK, as part of a Bomber Task Force as it refuels from a KC-135 Stratotanker over England, Aug. 29, 2019.

One of these photographs is worth a closer look as it shows an interesting sensor that equips every aircraft but whose shape and characteristics appear to be pretty peculiar to the Northrop Grumman’s strategic bomber.

Noteworthy, along with the air data ports, the photograph shows something else. On the right hand side of the photo (left wing), a circular window is also visibile: that window covers the aircraft’s astro-tracking system.

More here if interested.
