A U.S. military aircraft known as a “doomsday plane” made its way to Joint Base Andrews near Washington, DC this week, as President Trump considers whether to authorize a strike on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.
The E-4B Nightwatch, a specially outfitted command and control aircraft meant to ensure the continuity of government in a nuclear conflict, was tracked en route to the capital, following a meandering flight path.
According to data from FlightRadar, the aircraft departed from Bossier City, Louisiana, around 6 p.m. Tuesday and touched down in Maryland at 10 p.m., after flying along the East Coast and looping around parts of Virginia and North Carolina.
