This number would greatly expand over the course of the operation and include many more bases, including Torrejon, Moron and Zaragoza in Spain. Reflex operations would rotate bomber and refuelling aircraft and crews to overseas bases where they would be disbursed away from CONUS and be within striking distance of their targets.
