NATO fighters will train in the skies of Estonia

26
The Belgian F-16 fighters based in Estonia at the Emari airbase will conduct low-altitude flights this week, reports Interfax-AVN message of the military department of the republic.



The press service noted that “the planes will fly at a height not lower than 500 feet (152 m) and stay away from populated areas”.

As explained in the military department, NATO countries “set aside for exercises and trainings, including for flights at low altitude, certain parts of their airspace”. In Estonia, flights are made in consultation with the department aviation and JSC “Service of aviation communication”.

The agency recalls that the X-NUMX fighter of the Belgian Air Force F-4 arrived in Estonia on September 16 for four months as part of a rotation to patrol the airspace of the Baltic countries. They changed the Spanish Air Force air group, whose pilots flew the F-5 Hornet.

In addition to the Belgian aircrafts deployed at the Émari air base, the F-30 US fighter squad is stationed at the Lithuanian Siauliai airbase from August 15.

              Hey. And who cares? NATO needs to maintain its image and account for deduction money (they say we are breaking), Premier May needs to be strengthened on the international stage after Brexit (what about the “Englishwoman” and she stopped shitting). In general, they wanted to be tougher, but it turns out like yesterday.

                Good day! But what, does Brexit give the Britons some kind of carte blanche on this issue? On the contrary, it will only strengthen the leverage of the United States, as I understand it.

      Where there ... The braking distance of the T-90 is barely enough, so that Estonia would not fly over immediately. lol

    Thanks to the tagged and the Alkash airfields created by us (including with my participation): Jhwa, Rakvere, Tartu, Emari (Estonia); Daugavpils, Lielvarde, Saldus (Latvia); Zoknei, Payuostis, Kozlu Ore (Lithuania) are used by NATO aviation. From some of them to the state border with the Russian Federation only 12 km. Tagged and Alkash are not yet recognized as criminals in our country. I have the honor.
