“Aircraft including long-range bombers may be used in any eventual strike on Syria, but ‘that does not fundamentally change the parameters of the mission,’ a U.S. official said. The official was responding to a report from ABC News’ Jonathan Karl that said the U.S. attack plan for Syria could potentially include missiles fired from B-2 and B-52 bombers flying from the United States. The Wall Street Journal, meanwhile, has reported that the Pentagon was preparing to employ greater firepower to reach shifting military targets. The revised options under development include the use of Air Force bombers to supplement U.S. destroyers in the Mediterranean, the newspaper said.”
