πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡·πŸ‡Ί Can we confirm this TASS story using only publicly available flight data of a #USAF reconnaissance plane's mission earlier today?

Yes we can, and at the same time we deflate their spin.

This is a great example PAOs can use re the benefits of #OSINT.

Not only can we identify the plane's departure and arrival time from Crete, that was #USAF RC-135W Rivet Joint 62-4126 #AE1253 using callsign #ZEUS21.

We also see very clearly the sensor being used is on the right hand side of the plane; they conduct the pass at ~370kn, turn around as fast as they can (~450kn+), and make another pass, three times. Their departure wasn't forced, they were done; they left at ~420kn; not that fast
