deployments tho, there is a major base inspection next week we may see some aircraft for that
Seeing on Scramble that Baltops is 3rd June to 25th June this year, similar to last year?

Hoping to get down for that this year, and finally see some heavy bombers in the air! :clap:

Given, there's no sign of a deployment this month, despite rumours to the contrary, is Baltops/Sabre strike the next bomber rotation?
