A B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, assigned to the 509th Bomb Wing, at Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, performs a touch-and-go at Royal Air Base Fairford, England, on September 11, 2019.

A touch-and-go is a maneuver that involves landing on a runway and taking off again without coming to a complete stop. This allows pilots the ability to practice many landings in a short period of time. Three B-2 bombers, Airmen and support equipment from Whiteman AFB deployed to RAF Fairford as part of Bomber Task Force Europe in order to conduct theater integration and flying training. Participation in multinational exercises enhances our professional relationships and improves overall coordination with allies and partner militaries during times of crisis.
