German Eurofighters Conduct Combat Air Patrol after Drone Activity near Ukraine Border
Drones detected northeast of Sulina change course as German aircraft respond from Romanian air base
German Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft carried out a combat air patrol on September 4 after drones were detected near Romania’s border with Ukraine.
Romania’s radar surveillance systems picked up the drones 36 nautical miles northeast of Sulina in the evening. Two Eurofighters deployed from the 57th Mihail Kogălniceanu Air Base responded to the detection.
According to Romania’s defense ministry, the drones changed course northward shortly after radar contact was made, and their electronic signals subsequently disappeared.
The German aircraft continued monitoring before landing back at the Mihail Kogălniceanu Air Base.
