Yes: This is how Anycast works.

The same IP block is announced from multiple geographic locations, and so IP traffic will be routed to the nearest.

Even then, 0.4 ms round trip with the LTE tower itself doesn't make sense. The LTE stack just isn't designed for that.

So there's something called Anycast. Thank you. But does that work on LTE as well?
