The aircraft of the Russian Federation was spotted in international space over the Baltic Sea.
Germany scrambled fighter jets to intercept a Russian Il-20 military aircraft spotted in the skies over the Baltic Sea. About this on Friday, April 26, it said in a message from the German Air Force.
The report indicates that after the Il-20 (COOT-A) was detected, fighter jets took off from the Laage airbase to intercept it.
“Our German Eurofighters took off from Laage for the Alpha Scramble at around 12:45 today,” the Luftwaffe said in a release.
This is not the first incident involving the interception of a Russian Il-20 electronic reconnaissance aircraft in the Baltic Sea.
