The Nightwatch took flight from an Air Force base in Nebraska after Putin activated his nuclear forces. The plane is sometimes referred to as The Doomsday Plane.
The E-4 Nightwatch is a Control Center for the President of the United States and the government personnel responsible for the nuclear operation in the event of a war with weapons of this type. It is estimated that it cost more than 200 million dollars, and it is known as the Boeing E-4 E-4 advanced airborne command post.
The Nightwatch is modified to be able to survive a nuclear explosion. It is ready to stay in the air for a week without interruption and can refuel mid-flight. After that time, it needs to land to lubricate its engines. If conventional communications networks are destroyed, it is prepared to continue operating via satellite.
The aircraft, which responds to the radio code GORDO15, was detected by several online flight tracking services. The plane carried out a four hour mission with two RC-135S Cobra Ball jets that are used to calculate missile trajectory.
The plane made a second flight on Tuesday, and may be the last. The planes of the Final Judgment remain active at all times in case they are needed in times of trouble.
