Don't know how far north Turkey southern Crimea are but the global hawk Forte11 had been at least halfway in its patterns today. It's well high at 52,000ft.

Looks like a pretty standard sortie for the hawk today. What I'd give to see the kind of intel that thing is picking up. Must hoover up pretty much everything to justify it's price tag.

An RAF Boeing C-17 Globemaster III transport aircraft leaving Lossiemouth in the north of Scotland carrying equipment to help with the search for the missing Titan submersible.

It's understood to be carrying cabling to St John's in Newfoundland, Canada, the airport nearest to the site of the Titanic wreck.

Feel sorry for the passengers on this one. London to Miami, Scheduled departure of 10.25AM, 2 hour delay before finally taking off, then having to burn fuel for hours after some kind of issue. Only just landing back in London now.

I'm a bit puzzled about the F16's for Ukraine thing to give them 'modern' jets. They're nearly fifty years old although no doubt they've had a few upgrades. Are they really that much more cutting edge than the stuff Russia is using?
I think it’s more that the F-16s, even the early block ones are far more reliable and there is more of them. Its been shown in the warfare in the Ukraine that ’cutting edge‘ isn’t the problem it’s the pilot skills and the Russians just haven’t got enough pilots skills or experience as they are so rationed in flying hours.

It’s usually on a listening mission picking up radio and other signals from Russia, you will note that it did a rectangular flight by the border a couple of times before returning to base.

I'd really love a behind the scenes look at those Rivet Joints. I wonder what kind of intel they can gather.

They'll also be more than willing to keep the Baltic NATO countries happy by keeping an eye on Putins b*tch in Belarus.

Just came across this thread. ADS-B Exchange is a little bit more basic that FL24, however it does show more military aircraft than FL24.
THere's also ADS-B Unfiltered on Android OK the aircraft are coloured by height not what they are but it seems to cover a lower level that Flight Radar and ADS-B Exchange or even Freedar Military

Just seen a V22 or an AW609 tiltrotor overfly Southampton about 1350hrs heading east, in and out of cloud. Could not see it on my free Fliteradar. Anyone know anything about it?

Found it on FR24. Looks like he was out for a jolly before heading back to Mildenhall.
