The US military is sending nuclear-capable B-52H “Stratofortress” bombers to the Middle East at short notice to deter aggression and help preserve regional security.
The US Central Command said on Sunday the “long-range mission into the Middle East demonstrates the US military’s ability to deploy combat airpower anywhere in the world on short notice and integrate into Centcom operations to help preserve regional stability and security”.
The B-52H is a goliath of the US military, able to carry 32,000kg of munitions – including nuclear missiles – over 14,000 kilometres without refuelling. The US often sends the aircraft as a show of strength and a deterrence to hot spots around the world.

I've seen a B52 at an air show.

They are impressive but so old now being built from 1952–1962
