Actually I'm very curious how this looks like yes.

Uhm, does Denmark operate a T-17 with a Have Glass V paint scheme?

You just spoiled my day.

Unpopular thought: the actual participants probably couldn't care less if we percieve this years edition as "poor". It's valuable training any which way you put it.. Valuable yes, but not as valuable as alternative exercises that attract more participants in both numbers and diversity. We'll see ho...

Aren't those Steadfast exercises primarily focused at the nuclear deterrent instead of conventional interoperability like Air Defender?

Just to give everyone an impression of how the NH-90 could be seen at Van Ghent barracks during the Harbour Days in Rotterdam. Light is only reasonable in the morning (and perhaps at the end of the day as well, but it would have returned home by then). https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53161284011...

NH-90 about to take off from the Van Ghent kazerne.

Asking for a friend, of course.

Ask your friend if he already has the Russian AF1, just in case this escalates further...

I think the whole point is that Putin wants to show his people what happens with traitors. Some of the video footage that is now circulating may actually have been made for that purpose.

Never been there myself, but I do know there is a building with a dedicated viewing terrace:

Not sure if it is any good for taking pictures though...

Wat ik niet begrijp is dat de minister van Infra hiervoor verantwoordelijk is, terwijl het contract bij MinDef ligt. Gebaseerd op wat ik hierboven lees gaat het bij de governance al mis...

Wouldn't count on it. It costs a lot money and effort for an organization that is already stretched. On top of that I can recall a thread on this board in which someone wrote that the KLu does not consider the open day to be one of the primary recruitment tools anymore.

Dat er steeds meer F-35's meedoen vind ik niet meer dan logisch, alleen is het aantal buitenlandse deelnemers net als vorig jaar nogal beperkt. Echte knallers ontbreken dit keer helaas...

Last day of the exercise will be Thursday. A lot of participants will leave on Friday.

Yes, 817 is the Swedish Gripen.

Tomorrow is another VIP day, so a small static has been put together.
