A mysterious aircraft arrived in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia said the talks have completely broken down, and a big war is about to begin!
In recent days, the flight paths over the Middle East have become unusually tense. A E-11A communication relay aircraft with the serial number 09-0578 quietly landed at a military base near the Saudi capital of Riyadh. This is not an ordinary transport plane or passenger aircraft - the E-11A is the most advanced battlefield communication node platform currently in service with the US military, nicknamed "airborne WiFi".
Its core function is to build a real-time, cross-service, cross-platform data exchange network in the air, allowing fighter jets, ground forces, ships, and even drones to seamlessly share voice, images, and tactical orders. This kind of aircraft is rarely used in daily training or small-scale conflicts; its deployment usually means that large-scale, high-intensity, multi-domain joint operations are about to begin.
More concerning is that almost at the same time, another special mission aircraft, the WC-135R "Eternal Phoenix", also appeared in the Middle East airspace. This aircraft is equipped with a high-sensitivity air sampling system, specifically designed to "sniff out" radioactive isotopes in the atmosphere. Its appearance is usually related to radiation monitoring after attacks on nuclear facilities - either a preventive deployment, preparing to confirm whether the target has been destroyed and whether there is a nuclear leak immediately after the strike; or a deterrent signal, indicating that the US has placed Iran's nuclear facilities on the priority strike list.
Saudi officials privately revealed, "All channels of dialogue have been exhausted," and clearly stated, "no longer have any illusions about a peaceful resolution." Such a statement is extremely rare, reflecting Riyadh's deep concern about the deterioration of the situation.
