US builds up aircraft fleets on UK soil following Venezuela strike

The United States has significantly increased its military air presence in Britain, deploying ten large transport aircraft and two heavily armed planes to Royal Air Force bases. This build-up follows a high-profile Special Forces mission targeting Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro and suggests preparations for further overseas operations. Security measures have been heightened at key bases in Gloucestershire and Suffolk, where US and British forces collaborate closely.

The newly arrived aircraft, including the massive transporters and potent ground-attack planes, are equipped for rapid deployment and support of Special Forces missions. Their arrival coincides with escalating tensions in South America and the Middle East, as US leadership signals readiness to expand military engagement in response to regional unrest. British officials have declined to comment on the specifics of these movements.
