Four F-16 Portuguese Air Force will "guard the peace" of the Baltic States in the coming 4 months

Information Agency TASS referring to a representative of the Lithuanian military department and the press service of the North Atlantic Alliance, reports that NATO has transferred the F-4 fighter X-NUMX to Lithuania. These aircraft will carry out a mission to patrol the airspace of the Republic of Lithuania. All aircraft arriving at Zokniai airbase (Šiauliai region) belong to the Portuguese Air Force.

The report says that Portuguese aviation the mission will replace the military mission of the neighbors in the Pyrenees in Lithuania - the Spanish Air Force mission. Spanish pilots on Eurofighter Typhoon planes have “defended” the Baltic sky since January of this year.

It should be noted that Portuguese pilots are attracted to patrolling Lithuanian airspace for the third time. This NATO patrol began in 2004. One aviation group replaces another after 4 months. All the countries of the North Atlantic Alliance, which have their own Air Force with the presence of fighter aircraft, took part in the mission. Lithuania and other Baltic countries feel safe ...

In addition to the fighters of the Portuguese Air Force at the Zokniai airbase in Lithuania, recently there are two fighters of the US Air Force F-22 Raptor.

By deploying NATO troops on its territory, the Baltic states are forcing the Russian side to take counter-measures to counter the NATO threat; has the Baltic become safer from this?

It looks like soon (after 4 months or years) the turn will reach the ground group from the Vatican (NATO delivery by air) consisting of four priests for the funeral and blessing the complete rest of the sick Baltic countries.

In Estonia, a new hospital reform: to provide services throughout the country will be mainly total four hospitals. The public is at a loss and panic.

Number 4, generally for the Baltic countries it seems sacred.

They are not sick paranoid. They and NATO as a whole are instruments of US foreign policy.

[Observer2014]

Yes, take these planes to capture and escort. Let the pilots get nervous. From the threat of a missile attack.

As a "beholder" scarecrow for the Portuguese. Mattress pilots checked into a local pub

They would have already decided there, or something.

This is presented to us "this" under the sauce that they say, at the request of the government and people of the Baltic states and the countries of the former NATO Air Force, it is necessary to strengthen the border with Russia. Self-defense ... However, in reality, a powerful infrastructure is being created to accommodate significant offensive military groupings. This is evident by the nature of their numerous exercises. And the Balts here as extras --- they all came up with for them in Brussels and Washington. All that remains is to read out another bark in our direction on a piece of paper to mask a clear and forward strategy and everything looked culturally.

No response is needed to this Baltic ...
There, along with these interchangeable air-patches, they screwed themselves up so much that they were afraid of their own shadow ...

[Stalker.1977]

4 f16 and 2 f22, isn’t it funny, well, although if the Balts are so calmly let them calm down.

[vodolaz]

The attitude to the Baltic states in NATO is like in an old joke, where the Chukchi with Belka and Strelka were sent into space: do not touch anything and feed the dogs!

Not easy for them. The country football field quickly ends immediately after take-off!

[aba]

Well ... The Baltic states can be calm - Russian aggression is averted!

[salad]

What a joke they have, then they will send one to the other))

[DrVintorez]

Rotation of personnel. Learn the features of a possible theater of operations.

[Sorokin]

Now, this is more like reality.

[Orionvit]

Sorry, what kind of study, what kind of rotation? This is not a brigade or regiment, but four pilots every four months. I suspect this is their punishment.

[DrVintorez]

Why 4 pilots? 4 planes, and there may be more pilots. Plus its own technicals, most likely. Yes, and then a lot is not necessary, four flew, learned in real life what is there and how, then they will conduct classes for others. Cheap and cheerful. And the thesis about punishment is very interesting :-)

maybe a kind of vacation? exotic all the same

[Orionvit]

Well, the most arrogant in Europe do not have their own aviation, so they sent Portuguese aces, the "Baltic tigers", to cover them.

[aszzz888]

Where are they going to fly? Just took to the air - and ended pindoshprotiya, it is necessary to sit down!

[DrVintorez]

Well, you can mock.

and who said that they will fly? they will patrol. an airplane is taken, slings are taken. personnel harnessed. and ride the plane on the airfield looking strictly up! to make it easier to carry the plane, the runway is lubricated with oil from sprat washers. ride very fast 10-15 km / h, a special permit will be issued for such a malicious speeding in the territory of the Baltic states.

why not patrolling? a lot of fun. they would still have to ride, but it’s not all the same.

[Sharky]

Yes, and in the meantime, the inhabitants of Lithuania begin to feel all the "delights" of the transition to € vro on their own skin. So, the prices of goods are slowly growing and are brought to the "European standards". In a nutshell: what cost 10 litas (at the exchange rate to the ruble before the $ / € jumps, 1 litas = approximately 12 rubles) now costs 10 €. And the citizens of Lithuania began to look for other options for "obtaining" food. For example, it has become more profitable to drive to neighboring Poland for goods - it is cheaper there. So, instead of defending against an imaginary external threat, he can first pull a beam out of his own eye, no? No, pride probably does not allow ... After all, after all, a prosperous European power after all

[Silman1985]

It would be necessary for ours to fly there, let them ponder ....

You can not fly. take off from the airport and they have a tantrum. it is possible to land

[Ros 56]

As so, there was just information that the citizens would patrol, all of this is strange. Probably you need a pair of MiGare 31s above them every day to fly every hour through all three great tribales, as they once were over Israel. There will be a squeal, probably in the cockpits of the MiGarey you will hear.

[SAM 5]

All aircraft arriving at the Zoknyay airbase (Šiauliai region) are owned by the Portuguese Air Force.

Can learn to fly.

[Dmitry Potapov]

25 years of independence, neither .... I did not appear my 4 planes and 4 pilots! No, it’s for sure that they should return 500 lards to Russia!

[rotmistr60]

NATO transferred 4 F-16 fighters to Lithuania.

Of course, these planes are somehow a damn for us, but the sediment remains. It was written correctly above that taking advantage of the opportunity, NATO is circling around a possible theater of operations. Lithuanians are happy, okay. Yesterday S. Lavrov said that the most Russophobic country in the post-Soviet space is Lithuania. Therefore, why be surprised. The United States uses it (Lithuania) in its own interests, and when pressed it will be kicked out of its field of vision.

[33 Watcher]

Leased by the Air Force, in four aircraft ... i.e. in rent, i.e. without oath ... Mercenaries ... Together with airplanes ...
Strong! I'm afraid they held back ...

[Mountain shooter]

As many as four? And two Raptors are there somewhere. Well, then Lithuania can sleep peacefully. Her sky is under reliable protection. In boxing, this would be called "mock activity".

[AdekvatNICK]

Instead of the fictitious Russian mythical threat, the Baltic states receive the real ones by deploying troops automatically becoming the target for missiles.

[Neophyte]

Something, the NATO amicably threw into Limitrophy and other Courland? Local priestesses of love, are no longer able to withstand such pressure!

[kirieeleyson]

inflate 25 balloons with mock-ups of PU BUK (looks awesome) and send them to the border, let the Portuguese get a heart attack, along with their Ruts Pesdrins or whatever.

[Verdun]

Four F-16s and a pair of F-22s ... I would definitely not call this a serious military group. And as a sedative psychotherapy for the Baltic countries - a little expensive. And not a fact that will help ...

[Pitot]

This is not a four - it’s just a masturbation of NATO on the Baltic mongrel .....

[ayuric]

since 2004, the feeder has been open, the Baltic states have been sleeping soundly, they are guarding 4 aircraft, Russia cannot fly. , support Pitot "masturbation".

[Traveler]

It’s interesting, but is there such a country? Yes, and even can fight?, great, soon all of Europe will embark on the path of militarism, as under Hitler.
