British Air Force conducts NATO air policing mission

In a bid to reinforce European Security, British Air Force conducts a NATO air policing mission at Mihail Kogalniceanu airbase in Romania.

Four Royal Air Force (RAF) Typhoon fighters landed at Mihail Kogalniceanu Air Base in Southeast Romania on March 30 to support NATO’s enhanced Air Policing in the South, said NATO’s allied air command.

“The deployment is a pre-planned UK operation which seeks to reinforce our commitment to European security, highlighting that NATO remains ready to counter any threat within the region,” it added.

On the arrival of the Typhoons, Wing Commander Dutch Holland, Officer Commanding 140 EAW, was present to watch the aircraft arrive and welcomed the pilots alongside Romanian Air Force Colonel Eduart Dodu, Commander of Mihail Kogalniceanu Air Base.
