Was wondering what types of U.S. Military aircraft are seen/tracked in your part of the globe using your home based tracking systems. Any from the U.S. Navy or U.S.M.C. ? Here at my home I've seen a Voyager, a tanker I think. The A400M, C-17's, C-130's and on a rare occasion a few Helos.We get lots of military air traffic here in Southern California from our local bases and from various services thru out the world.

Depends on the definition of "seen". How close and recognisable to the human eye, with or without optics?
Within distant, visual range, most of those listed by mhm.
Close up, not many. Only F15's at Pembrey bombing range (no real bombs or concrete these days). Overfliying my location - P8, C17, C130/30J, C32(B752) and VC25 (B742).
I class as seen caught on SBS1 as reporter day date time. We get loads passing us coming into the UK and also going to Wales through the mach loop
