Just routed North up the Dead Sea was, so my screen tells me, KC-135R 80085 with trade reported as Grizzly 01. If it was that it was on FR24 with no hex, just "000246" in the space provided. That track maybe went east, but the KC continued NNW before returning over TLV while I was otherwise engaged.
Maybe related? Another KC-135R. 63-8878, heading back to Spain now. Track on FR24 shows it was orbiting just south of Crete.

63-8878 was LAGR708, now RTB to Moron - was on Satcom a short while ago with mission complete and 60K offload
