The only radiation monitoring aircraft WC-135 Constant Phoenix of the US Air Force deployed to Europe

The United States deployed its only radioactive contamination monitoring aircraft to Europe, on June 30 a WC-135 Constant Phoenix landed at the Chania Air Base in Crete. This is reported by the Western press with reference to the data of monitoring resources.

The only aircraft of this type in service with the US Air Force has reappeared in Europe, a year and a half after the last visit in January 2022. Then the Americans transferred the WC-135 Constant Phoenix to the British airbase Mildenhall. It is worth noting that the appearance of this aircraft in Europe is an extremely rare event, mainly this aircraft is located in the area of ​​the Korean Peninsula, where it monitors North Korea, sometimes visiting other regions of the globe.



The Boeing WC-135 Constant Phoenix is ​​a special mission aircraft based on the Boeing C-135 and used by the US Air Force. Designed to collect samples from the atmosphere in order to detect and identify nuclear explosions. Delivered in the mid-60s of the last century and is already considered obsolete.

What is the reason for the current transfer of the aircraft to Crete has not yet been reported, but with a high degree of probability, the reason was Ukraine and Zelensky's statements about a provocation allegedly being prepared by Russia at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian resources, citing a source at Bankovskaya, claim that Zelensky’s office planned a provocation to blow up the ZNPP, which they wanted to use to accuse Russia and demand to send NATO troops to Ukraine, since they don’t “take out” the Armed Forces of Ukraine on their own. However, the Americans intervened in Zelensky’s plans. Former US Vice President Mike Pence, who arrived in Kiev, held talks with Yermak and warned that NATO would not send troops to Ukraine even in the event of a provocation at the ZNPP, as this would lead to an escalation of the conflict.

    Well, that's it ... they are clearly preparing for some kind of "event" that will lead to radioactive contamination ... moreover, they are clearly preparing it. God bless us...

      Do they really dare to bang on the Zaporizhzhya NPP? This can't be dropped! In this case, it will be necessary to dump the Americans as well. There should no longer be any red lines. This should be regarded as the use of nuclear weapons. In this case, it is.
      Be sure to warn about the consequences of this step. Clear and hard. They might change their minds. And then act. Otherwise, they will provide Ukraine with tyao.

        There was such information on voenhronika.ru
        Three drones of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will strike at the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant at night, which will cause an explosive wave and release of radiation into the air. Defensive barriers built by the Russian side over the ISFSF do not represent a serious obstacle. After the provocation at the ZNPP, Zelensky will demand the introduction of NATO troops into the territory of Ukraine.

            The FSA is unequivocal, this is their methodology, in a war with conventional weapons, to hit nuclear facilities. For the ukrofascists, this is salvation: - at a minimum, freezing the conflict and in the future bringing in NATO troops, of course, they will blame us. It is not clear why the Supreme High Command and our leadership act as the second number. The Supreme High Command should appeal to the people, etc. what if anything, then we ..., and it's better to switch to D.A. slang. Medvedev “Given that only patented degenerates are gathered in the Polish leadership today, the request to deploy nuclear weapons in Poland threatens only one. Such weapons will be used.
            Finally, to the joy of all the madmen (even with the understanding that the final decision will be made by the senile overseas).
            But there is also a positive side to this. All duds, Moravian, Kaczynski and other evil spirits will disappear. Well, others will disappear, alas…” Medvedev wrote on Telegram.

      In my opinion, the Americans are preparing more for the resumption of nuclear tests by Russia. If anything from the ZNPP, then it is easier to take data from the ground, especially since the methods have been worked out after Chernobyl.

      They can also blow up a "dirty" one, there were rumors and threats from 404 before, and pass it off as an explosion somewhere at the ZNPP.
      The Kiev regime is preparing a provocation with a "dirty bomb" in Ukraine - https://ria.ru/20221023/provokatsiya-1825967691.html.

    The United States deployed its only radioactive contamination monitoring aircraft to Europe
    Either the Americans nevertheless decided to play along with Zelensky in whipping up fear about the ZNPP, or they realized that everything can be expected from him despite their warnings. In any case, the Western press will take advantage of the transfer of the plane to unleash tensions around the Zaporizhzhya NPP and accuse Russia.

      Everyone hid in anticipation of a provocation at nuclear facilities, most likely first at the ZNPP, which is under Russian control. Estimated dates July 7-10. Most likely on the night of the 8th or 9th.

    Since such a plane was brought in, it will definitely bang somewhere ... and it’s not a fact that it’s at the Zaporizhzhya NPP, it can be a distracting link. It’s quite likely that there’s a trick in another place, there’s a hell of a lot of other nuclear facilities ...

    Khinzirs will fire at the INF until the destruction of those concrete "barrels" or use a rocket with "dirty" equipment. A provocation at the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant is to infect the area with all the crap that can be scattered from the radioactive waste storage facility after the shelling.

    A year ago, the topic of a provocation at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant was rushed with might and main, and irrefutable facts were cited, and everything is the same. Moreover, both sides gave their own logical reasons why the enemy would certainly do this. We argued that if we don’t have time, it’s about to explode, and everyone will blame us, Kyiv hysteria that the Russians don’t give a damn about everything, and they will definitely blow up Chernobyl as soon as they take it. And blame, of course, Kyiv. The media on both sides went into hysterics, pumping the reader. As a result, we occupied the territory of Chernobyl. Our media assured that we had time in, literally, the last hours! Photographic documents, I remember, some laid out. In general, prevented, "dirty bomb" did not happen. Saved Europe once again.
    But here's what's interesting, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant has probably been in the hands of Kyiv for a year now, but interest in it from both sides somehow abruptly disappeared. No one blows up anything, and is not even going to.
    Of course, now they will give me 100500 reasons why this did not happen) In advance - I believe, I believe)
    In general, I want to say that the info war scenarios on both sides are approximately the same
    And the fact that WC-135 flew to Europe speaks only of precaution
    From the point of view of the same states that we are, that the Ukrainians are monkeys with a grenade, and who will sort them out, these crazy Slavs, what is in their heads, and what will they do in the next minute

      That's why they don't blow it up because it's under the dill. It will be difficult to blame Russia. And here it will be possible to blame that the "krivorukovy" Russian technicians turned the wrong valve, turned on the wrong switch, so it exploded, but we did not shoot there.

    Why did they take Chernobyl at all in order to provoke some kind of action?
    After all, as you say, they would not blow up on their own territory?
    Where is the logic?

    On the night of July 15-17, the Nazis will launch a massive attack on the ZNPP. As soon as part of the station is captured from the air, part of the storage facilities will be hit.
    Everything was as Zeleny predicted: the Russians blew it up when they left the station...
    The Americans are sure that the conflict will affect only Russia, the countries of Europe and the Black Sea-Mediterranean basin...
