President Donald Trump welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin for an Alaska summit Friday with a flyover of military aircraft including a B-2A Spirit stealth strategic bomber.
Trump and Putin met in Russia for a summit meeting during which Trump is seeking to secure a cease-fire in Russia’s war with Ukraine. As Trump and Putin walked down a red carpet, the flyover of a single B-2 with a flight of four Lockheed F-35 Lightning joint strike fighters took place.

(@JackPosobiec) The United States struck facilities in Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan related to Iran’s effort to develop nuclear weapons early on the morning of June 21, using as many as 14 GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators in the operation, which involved a 37-hour flight by seven B-2s based at Whiteman Air Force Base.
Trump has secured multiple peace deals across the globe, including defusing a conflict between India and Pakistan, both nuclear-armed states, in May. Trump also settled a conflict between Cambodia and Thailand.
In July, Trump reached an agreement with NATO where members of the alliance would purchase weapons, including MIM-104 Patriot surface-to-air missiles, and donate them to Ukraine.
