Here is how social media reacted to the event:

ABC News reported more details on the flyover:

The B-2 is considered a symbol of U.S. power, as the bombers can fly around the world nonstop and can carry both conventional and nuclear munitions.

As Trump and Putin met on the tarmac, a B-2 bomber and four F-35 fighter jets flew overhead, defense officials confirmed Friday.

On the tarmac, a red carpet was laid out with F-22 fighter jets on either side. The F-22 Raptors, known for their ability to fly undetected and air-to-air combat, operate out of the air base already, officials said.

It was not immediately clear whether Trump personally ordered the bombers and the flyover to the Air Force base as a kind of show of force ahead of his discussions with Russia, which also is a nuclear power. B-2 Spirit bombers have operated out of the base before.

In recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly praised the power of the aircraft and the skill of its pilots, noting that the seven B-2s used in Operation Midnight Hammer flew 36 hours straight from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri to Iran where they dropped more than a dozen bunker-buster bombs.

Trump has insisted the sites were “obliterated.” U.S. military officials say a damage assessment is still under way. On Aug. 6, he announced his administration ordered “new and enhanced” B-2 aircraft.
