The mysterious "square" on the U.S. B-2 stealth bomber involved in the attack on Iran has drawn widespread attention!
On March 10, Iran's Natanz Unit 2 nuclear facility was hit by precise strikes from the U.S. and Israel, revealing three neatly arranged craters that exposed its core vulnerability.
Although renowned for its heavily fortified structure, the site could not withstand the crushing force of a B-2 bomber carrying 30,000 pounds of bombs.
After analyzing photos released by the U.S. Central Command, military enthusiasts pointed out the mysterious "square" on the B-2 bombers that attacked Iran!
On the leading edges of the wings of two U.S. B-2 strategic bombers participating in Operation "Epic Fury," mysterious square markings appeared.
In addition to standard identification insignia, new elements emerged on the wing leading edges, sparking curiosity.
Reporters noted that on March 17, two aircraft preparing to depart from Whiteman Air Force Base also displayed white rectangles with black borders on their wings.
According to the article, these objects are symmetrically distributed on both upper and lower surfaces of the wings and appear to be secured using aviation tape, likely to reduce radar detectability.
The true purpose of these components on strategic bombers remains unclear at present.
The addition of such new parts on aircraft evokes memories of test markers used on B-2 bombers, but their appearance on operational combat aircraft is exceptionally rare.
This could be a sensor or electronic warfare component designed for real-time threat detection and countermeasures.
Moreover, media analysts do not rule out the possibility that this is a special device intended to make the combat aircraft even harder to detect by radar.
The B-2 is a hallmark aircraft of the United States and a national treasure.
Previously, on March 20, reports indicated that two U.S. B-52H Stratofortress bombers flew to the Middle East amid escalating tensions with Iran.
It was reported that they might have been carrying nuclear weapons.
