  • On the Southern side of Nellis Air Force Base reside some of the heavier aircraft including these B-1B Lancer bombers. Making up their own flightline, it's not uncommon for B-1's, B-2's E-3's as well as the larger allied aircraft such as C-130's and R1's to be parked away from the congested flightline to the North. Also located on this side of the base are the reventments used to shield aircraft being equipped with live weapons.
