DRAMA IN THE SKIES: What is with recent curious military missions?

Just hours ago, Joseph Trevithick reported this on THE DRIVE: CURIOUS MISSION FLOWN OVER THE BALTIC SEA BY US AIR FORCE NUKE SNIFFING PLANE...

The headline should raise as many eyebrows as a Cold War numbers station!

What was the mission for? 

This was the report:

The U.S. Air Force's lone WC-135W Constant Phoenix "nuke sniffer" aircraft flew an unusual mission over the Baltic Sea today. This plane is typically used to collect air samples to monitor for spikes in radiation levels in the atmosphere, but can also be employed after nuclear weapon tests and atomic accidents to help glean more information about those events and track the potential spread of dangerous radioactive material.

The WC-135W, which has the serial number 61-2667, carried out the flight, using the callsign Jake 21, from RAF Mildenhall in the United Kingdom, according to flight tracking data from ADS-B Exchange. Constant Phoenix aircraft have regularly used Mildenhall, which also routinely supports operations involving the Air Force's family of RC-135 intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft, as a staging point for missions in Europe for years.

The aircraft flew east over The Netherlands, Germany, and then Poland, before turning north into the Baltic Sea. Once there, it then flew a pattern over the water, before returning the way it had come. Online flight tracking data indicates that the plane flew for at least a time over the Baltic Sea at relatively low altitudes between 5,000 and 6,000 feet. The jet cruised at between 20,000 and 30,000 feet on its way to and from the area.

You may recall that there were interesting similar strange missions just a few weeks ago as well!

It was reported on July 23 that the 'doomsday plane' made a highly unusual visit to the secretive Tonopah Test Range Airport--and that the Secretary of Defense Loyd Austin III may have been on board..

There is endless intrigue as to what these highly unusual move mean.. 

Other sources to Front Page Aliens contends that, when watching air travel near military installations, things have been looking rather usual lately as well...

One highly notable (but highly underreported) nuclear issue taking place globally right now is the aftermath of the Taishan nuclear plant issue. The most recent--being a week old now!!--information reported was that China shut down the nuclear reactor for "maintenance" because of fuel rod damage..   Others more realistic are actively watching weather patterns globally, as radioactive gas would travel to the United States from the ongoing nuclear incident..
