Rumania

Just heard on Al Jazeera that Typhoons are in operation in Rumania; deployed initially as an exercise but the Russians are operating over the Black Sea so the Typhoons are flying QRAs.
No intelligence as to whether they are accompanied by Voyager(s).

Operation Biloxi, been there a while. Plenty of open source information on the Air Policing mission available.

And it’s Romania, not Rumania.

Sorry just a bug bear of mine. You do know your phone, computer, iPad…. Will sort out the spelling for you if you need it to?

It’s a rumor that the typhoons are flying there, that’s why the name Rumania

I always wanted to detect a missile launch from there so that I could report a "Vampire from Transylvania".

Are you suggesting that it’s a stake-out rather than QRA?

In my time in Romania I always found that Vlad was considered a national hero - "sound on Turks and the causes of Turks"
