8 hours flying time would mandate pre-strike & post-strike refuelling.
The tanker would most likely be an RAF Voyager aircraft.
The Voyager is a probe & drogue refueller based on the Airbus 330.
I wonder where the Voyager orbited while the Typhoons hit their targets...most likely in Saudi airspace.
If the Lankford immigration bill details turn out to be as leaked, I’m shocked at how bad it is.
I expected something decent, but short of House goals.
Lankford won’t be helping Ukraine with that ‘deal’.
We shall see...

Wow!
The Russian economy has a new poster boy, in the Wildberries fire.
That is a lot of facility to lose, in addition to the short term psychological effect of seeing the sky transformed into Orc World for a day or two. A lot of people and businesses will have to find workarounds.
Volgograd (formerly Stalingrad) colder than Helsinki?
Clearly, God is punishing Russia (second cold Winter in a row).
“70 apartment buildings?”
Another legacy of the decades of Soviet centralized planning (beyond their reliance on centralized heating plants), is a greater preponderance of apartment residences, relative to single family homes, in their cities.
We could send them our homeless. Illegal immigrants too.

They already have a homeless problem that makes ours look like a drop in the bucket.
Reports of Storm Shadows heading towards occupied Crimea right now.
Storms up!
The initials ITYS mean anything?
UPDATE: The A-50 & IL-22M aircraft were being escorted by a Su-30SM and the pilots observed the planes getting hit, likely by Ukrainian PATRIOT missiles. Russian military helicopters on the way to search for wreckage.

"BS. We're actual conservatives who only support conservatives for President. And the gig is finally up for anyone trying to refer to Trump as a conservative anymore, and everyone knows it."That last part about conservatives losing every battle since Reagan is what most likely finally crossed the line.I love it when RINOs run around declaring how "conservative" they are. They try to wrap themselves in Regan while wanting everything the globohomo Bush Crime Family want like open borders.
Please try to prove to me what the "conservatives" have conserved since Reagan because I don't know of one damn battle that they won over the leftists as they took over everything. I have had to put up with your stupid bleating for far too long. Go %#@% yourself Golden Beagle.
