## Key points

- MizarVision tracked US bombers at RAF Fairford for months.
- Analysts warn the imagery could expose military locations.
- The US relocated nine B-1B bombers from the base.

## Summary

MizarVision, a Chinese satellite imagery firm reported to have links to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, tracked US bombers at RAF Fairford for several months and shared high-resolution images online. Analysts warn that identifying aircraft and their locations could expose military assets to attack, raising concerns about the security of US forces based in Britain.

The US moved its nine B-1B bombers from Fairford last month; experts believe the imagery may have contributed to that decision, though the article does not confirm the reason. MizarVision also published images of a Saudi air base shortly before Iranian strikes there in February, which killed a US service member. The report comes amid other security concerns at UK bases, including suspected drone activity at RAF Lakenheath and an Iran-linked threat at RAF Mildenhall; the Ministry of Defence said it monitors public satellite imagery and threats.
