I posted this in the discussion thread a bit ago:
So as to not create another plane fag post, I'll comment here. Two Airbus A332's one French and one British, left Ft. Hood recently. Is it common for the Brits and French to use Airbus as military aircraft? Why would they be in Ft. Hood of all places? I find it weird.

Trying to figure out "why Ft. Hood?" WH's or [DS] at Ft. Hood?
They don't have C17 and C5 and special purpose tankers like we do. They rely on a commercial airbus platform and modify it to fit their needs. Also foreign military (friendly) air traffic into and out of the USA is not alarming, it happens more than any one realizes, just like we use their bases all the time.
Our planes are bigger faster and louder so I'm sure they complain about it over there while we think their stuff is just another commercial plane.
