Yeah Fox said Guam bound but they tanked up again over Hawaii before the transponders went off so they got fuel to go past Guam now. With full 60,000lb load. Empty B2 s wouldn’t need fuel right after takeoff, again just off California coast and again past Hawaii. They are Heavy’s at this point this is the probably the strike.

Look at the day night terminator they are flying into it at 500mph as it approaches them at 1000mph it just got dark in Iran if they tank again over the Indian Ocean and swing past India it’s a straight shot to Iran and it will be plenty dark still by the time they get on station. They egress in the dawn and tank up in daylight over the Indian Ocean in the way BACK To Diego if they land at all. Those pilots are trained for 30 hour round trip flights. That’s how pretty much every other B2 strike has been flown.

Turn on the daylight terminator.
