“The fact that they will soon be deployed somewhere in the Middle East means that the US army is ready for war,” the source said.
Of the six E-3 Sentry aircraft, two are en route from Alaska via RAF Mildenhall in the United Kingdom and four are en route from Oklahoma to Ramstein in Germany. Both formations will move up in the Middle East.
A submarine loaded with Tomahawk missiles is also believed to be hidden in the Gulf. The submarine played a key role in Operation Midnight Hammer against Tehran’s nuclear power plants in June 2025.
The US is also believed to have a large amount of equipment for warplanes parked off the coast of Oman as part of the US fleet and moving towards bases in the Middle East.
It is understood that a squadron of F-22 Raptors has been sent to a base in Jordan to help defend Israel against possible Iranian missile attacks.
US President Donald Trump In January, the first threats of military action were made against the Tehran regime after protesters in the Middle Eastern country were met with a brutal crackdown. Thousands of Iranians were killed.
At the time, President Trump told protesters that his country would “come to their aid” if the government “violently kills peaceful protesters.”
Since then, the dispute between the two countries has continued over nuclear and ballistic weapons.
Iran has agreed to discuss its atomic program but refuses to engage with ballistic missile policy, a red line for US ally Israel.
Despite the threat of war, Tehran remained defiant.
“A warship is a dangerous device,” Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei said in a message to President Trump. “But more dangerous than that is a weapon that can send that warship into the depths of the sea.”
President Trump warned Tehran that failure to reach an agreement could lead to strikes.
He also said that he could reveal where the Iranian leader lives and that he would not feel safe if it were Supreme Leader Khamenei.
