The aircraft has been spotted at RAF Mildenhall in the United Kingdom and is expected to support operations.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"2\"\/>According to updates from US Central Command, the EA-37B has recently been added to the list of assets being used in Operation Epic Fury, military campaign ordered by Donald Trump.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/>This special element in American air force would add strength to the side in its action against Iran regime now controlled by Mojataba Khamenei.

Photos shared online also confirmed the presence of the aircraft at Mildenhall, showing its modified body designed for electronic warfare systems.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>While the aircraft has now been listed among deployed assets, it is not yet clear whether it has carried out active missions.
