QRA Luftwaffe Typhoons intercept Russian An-72

Post by Thermal »

Maybe there is already a topic on this but I could not find it. If so: sorry for posting.

Last week 2 German Typhoons of JG54 made their first ALPHA scramble from Lithuanian territory.

A Russian AN-72 was intercepted over the Baltic Sea and escorted away.
