How OSINT analysts tracked this in real time. Civilian analysts watching publicly available flight-tracking data observed KC-135 tankers, F-22 Raptors, F-35s, E-3 AWACS, and cargo aircraft repositioning at a tempo inconsistent with routine rotations. Over 120 aircraft moved to the region before any official statement. The same methodology is applied to Australian organisations every day.
