According to an investigation by ABC’s Four Corners, Washington is planning to build dedicated facilities for B-52 bomber aircraft at Tindal air base, south of Darwin.This includes a $100 million dollar parking area that could be completed in the next 4 years.Officials in Canberra confirmed that the US-funded aircraft parking apron at RAAF Base Tindal would be capable of accommodating up to six B-52 aircraft, but said it could also house other aircraft types.They said the project was currently in the design phase, and played down the significance of the development, saying US bomber aircraft had been visiting Australia since the early 1980s and conducting training in Australia since 2005.In this video, Defense Updates analyzes how B-52 Stratofortress in Australia would counter Chinese designs in the region?#DefenseUpdates #B52 #usvschina
