Interesting stuff on Google Maps as far as Camp Lemonier is concerned. Go here to see for yourself but I see (at least as far as the map is oriented on my computer screen) on the western side of the airport a spot that has 5 CH-53's, four C-130's and on the opposite side of the airfield I see six F-15's and a couple more C-130's in addition to a couple of P-3's.
The secret war in North Africa is becoming more intense. Digging for information on what's going on over there, several years ago Africa Command stated publicly that rotations of 200 US Army Special Forces troops were going in and out of this base.
That doesn't include what the French are doing (they have a French Foreign Legion Brigade and a Marine Regiment there) and of course with all of them playing you know the rest of the Special Ops of the world can't be far behind...I wouldn't be surprised to see British, Polish, Romanian, German, Italian...heck the entire western world participating in operations there.
THIS IS A MAJOR LEAGUE OPERATION NOW. THIS IS A BLACK OP THATS ABOUT TO BUST WIDE OPEN. NEXT WAR ZONE...AFRICA!

UPDATE:
A couple of readers have spotted French ATL2 MPA's, Transol 160's, and C-27's...that's in addition to the F-15's, C-130's and CH-53's that were pointed out earlier but doesn't account for what's hidden away in the hangars and you can bet body parts that at least a couple of UAVs are present.
Looks like more P-3s and maybe some C-27s North of the runway.
ReplyDeleteWonder if any of those C-130s are Spooky's?
Either way its some pretty serious hardware.
There are some French Transal C160 and ATL2 MPA too.
ReplyDeleteMirages are supposed to be deployed permanently there as well but i can't find them
