Two B-1Bs from Dyess Air Force Base, Texas, dropped 12 inert Mark 62 Quickstrike mines while participating in BALTOPS. The inclusion of bombers in the exercise provides an opportunity for bomber crews to integrate and train with other European Command components, while exercising the United States’ key bomber capabilities.
