Someone was nice enough to copy and paste info on the Nightwatch and AWACS aircraft I refer to below in the comments. Didn’t want to have a novel in the title since it was an image post. Figured showing proof was more compelling...
Thank you for posting this. But a short and simple explanation like Join_or_Die posted below goes a very long ways for the newbies like myself.
I know we can look it up ourselves but that still doesn’t give us context on why it’s unusual or important and what might be going on... Like the big things like you mentioned.. What are the big things?! Or at least, what do you think might be happening?
I’m not active military, but if I were to make an educated guess, AWACS is up because of a real threat to America right now from a foreign power. Iran? China? I don’t know. Are these birds up regularly? Yes. Training missions are a thing. Is it compelling to see multiple doomsday aircraft on the move in unison days after a major event at the Capitol building 3 days ago? I don’t believe in coincidences. But obviously everyone is welcome to their own opinion.
OP, you need to flesh out what these different planes do, and why it matters.
Don't assume everyone here knows what you know.
Google AWACS aircraft.

Yes, and specifically why it's different than normal
