As part of #SteadfastDefender24, Nörvenich AB ETNN launched somewhere between 12 and 20 planes in the last couple of minutes.
The planes are likely a mix of Eurofighter and Tornado
Note that usually, each record on MLAT is a flight of two planes, sometimes even 4. #nato
Four USAF KC-135 left RAF Mildenhall on a northbound routing.
4 Tankers, means alot of fuel, the routing makes sense for refuel of heavy bomber exercises of a CONUS based strike towards the Kola Peninusla, where the RU Northern Fleet is based.
