Frisian Flag in 2020

[Rockville]

As far I know, nuclear-powered ships aren't allowed to dock in The Netherlands

Not correct. They are, but under very strict restrictions.

You can scrap 617sqn and CA F15's from the list.
USAF will only participate with LN Eagles, but from Lakenheath.
French navy Rafales will only operate from CdG, but an occasional visit is always possible.
You can ad some Polish F16's and French M2000's

[Zonan]

So now the list of operations from Leeuwarden is:
F35 RNLAF
F16 RNLAF
F16 PortAF
F16 PolAF
EF2000 GAF
M2000 FAF
F18 FinnAF
F18 SwissAF

Correct?

Yes it definately will drop it’s anchor at some stage, it will be in port both before and after FF but no idea which one. Most likely Brest at some stage!

Why there? It could also be Amsterdam or Rotterdam.

Because that is her home port.. I thought, but it appears to be Toulon!

Hi all!

On a normal day frisian flag : take off at 09.00, recovery at 11.00 and second wave than 13.00 take off and 15.00 recovery or will it be different this year?

No tanker support with shorter airtime?

Kind regards,

Why not interesting? This topic is about the Frisian Flag 2020 exercise, which this year is bigger than the assets operating out of Leeuwarden.
@TommyW: Planned are F-15C/D operating out of Lakenheath.

[Joe Kurr]

Although the F-15s and Rafales aren't operating out of Leeuwarden doesn't mean they could not occasionally drop by.
In case of emergency, Leeuwarden is much closer to the exercise area than Lakenheath, and much easier to land on than an aircraft carrier.

[Stafsels]

Thanks!

So two waves 09.00-11.00 and 13.00-15.00?

Kind regards,

Stafsels
