Thanks for the information!
Any idea if the RC-135 is an exchange aircraft for current 62-138/OF or "only" a stop over from or to another operating location?
85-1363 departed in the afternoon, also of not where two CV-22 flying this evening, as reported by other spotters their first mission after two weeks or so ...

Richard,

It's too early to know if the RC-135U is in transit or to be new on detachment here.

Not living at Mildenhall, I don't know how many CV-22 missions there have been recently. There were 4 CV-22Bs outside in the morning. The unit was due to be at Fairford on exercise this week, but that appears to have been cancelled.

522nd SOS 08-6202 was showing on SBS as also departing in the afternoon.
