ella vio los jets desplazándose [avanzando] en sus rutas de bombardeo

Explanation:
Creo importante rescatar la imagen en “bombing runs”, que no es igual a cualquier tipo de bombardeo. No creo que en español se entendería bien “corridas de bombardeos” o “carreras de bombardeos”, pero tal vez “avanzando en sus rutas de bombardeo” permita visualizar la aterradora experiencia.
