Independent aircraft tracking for RAF Mildenhall

What is EGUN?

EGUN is the ICAO airport code for RAF Mildenhall, a Royal Air Force station in Suffolk, England, operated by the United States Air Force. It is home to the 100th Air Refueling Wing — the USAF's only permanent air-refuelling wing in the European theatre, flying the KC-135 Stratotanker — and the 352nd Special Operations Wing, which operates the CV-22 Osprey and MC-130J Commando II. That mix, together with frequent RC-135 reconnaissance and transient strategic traffic, makes it one of the most watched military airfields in Europe.

What We Do

EGUN.info tracks live movements at Mildenhall using real-time ADS-B data. The military picture leads: what is on the ground, what is inbound, and what is transiting overhead, categorised by mission and nation.

The platform offers:

Live radar — Real-time aircraft positions around Mildenhall, from ADS-B receivers
Military tracker — Tankers, ISR, airlift, special-ops and VIP movements, nation-flagged and categorised
On-ground board — What is parked on the ramp now, with logic that catches airframes that go ADS-B-dark on stand
Movement log — Arrivals, departures and overflights with type, registration and operator
Conditions — Live aviation weather (METAR/TAF) and runway state

ADS-B Data

ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) is a system where aircraft broadcast their position, altitude, speed and identification via radio. Note that military aircraft frequently operate with ADS-B switched off — and USAF airframes routinely go dark once parked — so the picture here reflects what is transmitting, not everything on the field.

The data is provided for informational and recreational purposes only and should never be used for flight safety, navigation, or air traffic control.

Independence
