The F-35s represent a much greater military capability for air defense and intelligence gathering especially at a moment when Russia is sending as many as 700 drones and ballistic missiles a night against targets in Ukraine. The deployment will run as a 24/7 quick reaction alert, with Dutch and Norwegian personnel operating jointly under NATO control. It followed a request from NATO’s Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe, prompted by intensifying Russian strikes near the Polish-Ukrainian border. Russia has increasingly targeted infrastructure in western Ukraine, including areas near Lutsk and Ternopil, where Western aid and weapons often enter. While NATO F-35s have previously flown over Estonia, the upcoming operation in Poland stands out for its length and multinational framework. The six-month deployment is among the longest for NATO F-35s and introduces a shared operational structure. Do you think that F-25s fighter jets are invicible as they claim ?
