The Russian fighter jets were sent to test the readiness of Nato’s air defences, writes Mykhailo Honchar, an expert in security relations, in a Facebook post republished by Glavkom:
“The aim of the operation was to test in detail the response of Nato countries’ air defence systems in the Gulf of Finland: which radar systems in Estonia and the neighbouring Baltic countries, Poland, Finland and Sweden would be activated; which aircraft would be launched from which airfields, and how long it would take them to reach their interception targets. This is particularly relevant given that Nato recently launched Operation Eastern Sentry, deploying additional forces and resources to its eastern flank after Russian drones entered Polish airspace.”
