Earlier today, ten ISR aircraft from multiple NATO members flew over the Baltics and Ukraine:
USN P-8A (PK18x)
US Army RC-12Xs (YANK01 & YANK03)
USAF RC-135W (JAKE11)
USAF E-8C (REDEYE6)
RAF P-8A (GURNY01)
RAF RC-135W (RRR7205)
Swedish S100D (SVF604)
Swedish S102B (SVF623) 1/5
Norwegian 20ECM (NOW717H)
German P-3C (GNY4500).
Callsigns, Registrations, Hexes:
PK18x #AE68AA from Keflavík, IS
JAKE11 62-4134 #AE01CE from RAF Mildenhall, UK
REDEYE6 01-2005 #AE1499 from Ramstein AB, DE
YANK03 & YANK01 88-00325 #AE515E from Šiauliai, LT
3/5
RRR7205 ZZ665 #43C39C from RAF Waddington, UK
GURNY01 ZP801 #43C918 from RAF Lossiemouth, UK
SVF623 102003 #4A81F8 from Malmen AB, SE
SVF604 100004 #4A8220 from Malmen AB, SE
NOW717H 053 #478121 from Gardermoen AS, NO
GNY4500 60+08 #3F6008 from Nordholz AB, DE #ADSB 4/5
This is the most I have seen in the time I have been mapping these activities. ARTEMIS had a scheduled flight plan, but missed the take-off time (again). The USN P-8A callsign was not reported on Twitter, but we can assume PK18 from the take-off location and date.
5/5
The specific focus on the Baltic Sea and the Danish straits is likely due to the recent departure of multiple Russian Navy Ropucha-class landing ships. 5/5
