The US Air Force has removed all of its bombers from RAF Fairford, it has revealed.
A US Air Force statement said: "US Air Force bombers routinely operate around the world to support global force readiness and operational requirements.
"While operational security precluded us from confirming the movement of our assets and forces in real-time, we can acknowledge now that all US bombers that were deployed to RAF Fairford have redeployed to their home stations in the United States.
"The Airmen that operate America's bomber force, including B-1s, B-2s, and B-52s, remain ready to deliver precision global strike capabilities - including through operations that launch and recover from the continental United States - anywhere, anytime."
