In related news an RC-135V Rivet Joint was spotted yesterday, cruising the border with Mexico in the vicinity of a known Cartel hotspot.
Wonder if they will also get Tariffs...

Charl, for some reason my Flight Radar always opens in that area...so I look for the little delta shaped icons , which are normally fast military types.
That was the first one I hit.....and bingo.
Normally I get a Talon or similar. Not uncommon to pick up one or two hunters as well.
Amazing to think that ER-2 was around 20,000 feet above just about everything flying on the planet....I couldn't follow him , I was running late for work.

Re Rivet Joint, they are quite rare on Radar.....and as far as tariffs on the cartels, who would know ...it is the U.S after all.
