The US decided to speed up the deployment of upgraded B61-12 thermonuclear bombs in Europe.

⠀

“They are planned to be delivered to NATO’s European bases in December, while it was originally planned to do this in the spring of 2023,” experts say.

⠀

Washington’s decision to modernize old weapons comes amid rising tensions between the West and Russia.

⠀

At the same time, the Pentagon assures that the renewal of tactical weapons in Europe allegedly “has nothing to do with the events in Ukraine”.

⠀

The B61 aerial bomb has been in service since 1968, currently in modifications 3, 4, 7 and 11. The B61-12 is designed to replace the first three.

⠀
B61-12 can be used in free-fall and corrective modes from the B2 strategic bomber, F-15, F-16, PA-200 Tornado fighter-bombers, as well as “future aircraft platforms F-35, B-21, F / A -18F”.
