The two B-2 Spirit bombers flew more than 6,500 miles from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri to South Korea, dropping inert munitions before returning to the U.S., according to a statement released by U.S. Forces Korea.
"The United States is steadfast in its alliance commitment to the defense of the Republic of Korea, to deterring aggression, and to ensuring peace and stability in the region," the statement said.
The B-2 Spirit is capable of delivering both conventional and nuclear weapons. The Pentagon said the mission was part of its ongoing Foal Eagle training exercise series, which began March 1 and ends April 30.

Probably. I know they don't like to deploy them to non-US bases due to security concerns, but they have deployed them to Anderson AFB in Guam. They actually had one crash there five years ago.Training for the B-2 is something like regular 36 hour flights correct?
Fuuuccckkk that
I recall round-trip sorties being made from Whiteman to the Middle East for either the Iraq or Afghanistan war as well.
