Military aircraft over Montana right now

Get alerted, not just informed

Squawk can push you a notification when a military aircraft enters an area you draw over Montana — including departures and recoveries at watched bases.

What you can and can’t see

Everything on this page comes from transponder broadcasts picked up by volunteer receivers. Military aircraft frequently operate with the transponder off, and some broadcast anonymised identifiers, so an empty page is never proof that nothing is flying. What is here is real; what is missing may simply be silent.

• Alerts fire on any aircraft entering an area you draw — not only a flight you look up.
• Military aircraft are never filtered from the map.
• Worldwide alerts for squawk 7700, 7600 and 7500.
• The free tier includes one alert zone that sends push notifications.

Other states

Live positions come from volunteer-run ADS-B receivers, shared as open data under the ODbL licence. An aircraft is visible here only if its transponder is broadcasting and a receiver hears it, so coverage is dense over North America and Europe and thin over oceans, deserts and mountains. Not for navigation or operational use. More about our data.
