2026-05-11T00:43:00.542Z - Comment: Mission Summary Phantom 45 will depart Mildenhall, proceed northeast over the North Sea, and fly two full back-and-forth patrol passes along the Baltic States / Kaliningrad buffer zone (maintaining strict 20+ NM offset from Russian/Belarusian airspace). After completing the surveillance legs, the aircraft will recover at Ramstein. This profile mirrors real-world RC-135 Rivet Joint missions flown today by the 55th Wing under Air Combat Command — collecting radar emissions, communications, and air activity along NATO’s eastern flank.
