So far there have been four US Air Force flights carrying highly enriched uranium bound for South Carolina, taking off from Wick John O’Groats Airport, in Caithness, at weekends as the base is closed to civilian aircrafts on Saturdays.
Dounreay, the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, Police Scotland, the Civil Nuclear Constabulary and the airport have all refused to comment.
The deal was trumpeted by former prime minister David Cameron and ex-US president Barack Obama, arranging for highly enriched uranium – the basic building block for a nuclear bomb – to be flown from Wick to the US in return for “medical grade” uranium to make radioisotopes for detecting cancer.

If it’s top secret why do we now know about it?

Not to worry. Nobody knows where the planes are taking off from, or when, or what they are carrying.

[Top secret for who?]
I guess we’re the only 2 beside the author that knows about it.
Well, maybe the OP, too. Don’t tell anyone else, though.

But that’s just a guess.

Tell that to the idiots that want to bury old Navy nuclear fuel in Yucca Mountain. Over 90% enriched and 40% burn out. Try doing the numbers.
