Trouble for Putin? Germany’s Eurofighters Land 180 km from Russian Border, Sparks Tensions

Germany’s Eurofighter jets have conducted high-profile military exercises in Finland, landing just 180 kilometres from the Russian border.

Since September 4, three aircraft from Germany’s 71st Tactical Air Wing Richthofen have been practicing takeoffs and landings on a highway near the village of Hosio, with their base located 147 kilometers from Russia.

This display of tactical readiness underscores NATO’s heightened presence in the region and could exacerbate existing tensions with Moscow.

The maneuvers highlight NATO’s commitment to enhancing operational capabilities and adaptability in response to the evolving security landscape.
