Germany is set to host the largest deployment of aircraft in NATO’s history, with over 250 aircraft and 10,000 personnel participating in a two-week long military exercise beginning on Monday. The exercise is known as Air Defender and is being led by the German government. This comes as tensions escalate with fighting on NATO’s doorstep in Ukraine. The offensive is aimed at reclaiming territory captured by Russia in 2020. Officials involved in the 25-nation NATO exercise claim that it sends a message about the alliance’s solidarity. The event will start with an air show in Wunstorf and will feature cargo and refueling planes and fighter jets. No offensive scenarios will be practiced as the alliance sees itself as a defense alliance. The goal of the exercise is to test how aircraft from different states communicate with each other and to let Putin know what NATO is capable of launching, if needed.
