BRITISH AND Finnish fighter jets joined forces in a multinational live Nato exercise to test early warning and air defence systems. Air crews and ground troops from 20 Alliance countries took part in integrated air and missile defence drills across nine locations in Bulgaria and Romania, culminating in a livefiring event. It is Finland’s first foreign deployment for Nato since joining the Alliance in April 2023, with them flying sorties with RAF Typhoons from Mihail Kogălniceanu Airbase in Romania.
