    A B-2 Spirit stealth bomber is taxiing on a runway, identifiable by its distinctive flying-wing design and dark gray low-observable coating. The aircraft displays markings including the tail number '80328' and the name 'Spirit of Texas' along with 'WM' unit designation codes on the nose gear door area. The setting appears to be a tropical or subtropical airfield, suggested by the lush green vegetation visible in the background.

    A B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, deployed from Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, taxis for take off at Naval Support Facility Diego Garcia, in support of a Bomber Task Force mission, August 26, 2020. BTF missions allow U.S. Strategic Command to provide persistent, long-term bomber presence to aid in U.S. Indo-Pacific Command’s commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific. As part of their BTF deployment, the B-2s participated in a combined United States-Australia exercise with Marine Rotational Force-Darwin and Australian Defence Forces. During the exercise, MRF-D and ADF Joint Terminal Attack Controllers coordinated airstrikes with U.S. Air Force B-1B Lancers and B-2 Spirit Stealth Bombers. (U.S Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt.
