At Tyndal Air Base, south of the Australian city of Darwin, Washington plans to build facilities for basing B-52 bombers, the channel reports. According to him, the US has developed plans to deploy a so-called “squadron operations center” to maintain and park “six B-52s” during the dry season in the Northern Territory.

“The ability to deploy US Air Force bombers in Australia sends a strong message to adversaries about our ability to project deadly aircraft,” a US Air Force spokesman was quoted as saying by ABC.
