Albacete (LEAB) 2022 MIL

[frdwdrn]

Yesterday adsb showed eight German callsigns arriving at Albacete. Also a flight of Belgian F-16s supported by an A400M. Also a Italian C-130 arrived on the heels of the A400M. I didn't see any other Italian hardware. All probably TLP related.

Spanish article I found lists the following participants;
4 Belgian F16, 3 Czech Gripen, 6 German Eurofighter, 4 German Tornado IDS and 2 Tornado ECRs; 4 French Mirage 2000 and 6 Rafale; 6 Italian Typhoons and finally 2 Ala 12 Hornets. There will also be a NATO AWACS and GFD Learjet.

Some additional info from flightplans:
German Eurofighters from Laage, Neuburg and Nörvenich
Italian Typhoons from Grosseto, Istrana and Trapani
Belgian F-16's: 3 from Florennes and 3 from Kleine Brogel
according to ADS-B: BAF431 FA114, BAF252 FA117
Rafales are most likely from the navy as today there is a flightplan of a navy rafale into Albacete

[Le Addeur noir]

Probably one or more AMI HH-139s as well. One of these arrived at Girona late on the 19th. IAM15xx callsign.

Last Monday no TLP mission was launched late afternoon, which may have been weather related.
Tuesday November 23rd did see a launch. To Mr.Herkeybird's log I can add EUFIs 30+78 and 30+71, Tornadoes 44+70, 46+02, 45+20.
All three Czech Gripen were in the air, as was a pair of Ala 12 F-18s: C15-50 and C15-70. Yesterday there was a Spanish navy AB212 at San Javier, which is supposed to be TLP related.
Also at Albacete Tuesday were a Spanish army Tigre HA28-19/ET719 and a navy SH-60F 01-1019.

TLP 2022-4 overview updated! Many thanks for the info.

[Mr.Herkybird]

Thanks guys, however Rafale 18 seems to be a mispole (was sure with it, but a little tree hid just a bit of the lower part of the reg) and 18 is a writte off, so it should be 19.

[frdwdrn]

My photos have revealed another Rafale M at the current TLP: 33. Can't confirm 19, however. Didn't fly when I was there.

[Kevin Brewer]

Italian EUFI coded 37-04 looked like MM7304 from my photo. In addition to all of the reports above we noted German EUFI 30+88 plus Rafales 13 and 15. Additional German Tornados logged were 46+51 and 46+32. EF-18 coded 12-08 was C.15-50 and code 12-28 was C.15-70. We also noted a Mirage coded 3-IF plus GFD Lear Jet D-CGFC.

[Mr.Herkybird]

MM7304 was shown in the flightplan for the 37.Stormo Eufis, so looks good at least for this one.

19 confirmed flying on 22-11 and 23-11 (@ Fred: this-one took off when you were driving from the take-off to the landing, and landed in the dark after you probably already had left...).

[HansW]

below was seen flying on 22-11 and 23-11 (excluding visitors and locals). The E-3A managed to escape us as we did not wait for it's recovery. All numbers are read/confirmed from photo.
