RAF Typhoon Over Lithuania
A Royal Air Force Typhoon FGR4 in flight over Lithuania
Four Royal Air Force Typhoon FGR4 aircraft have arrived at Siauliai Air Base, Lithuania to take part in the NATO Baltic Air Policing (BAP) mission.
The deployment forms part of a series of measures taken by NATO to support and reassure its Eastern member states. BAP is a standing NATO task undertaken by rotations of typically four air defence fighter aircraft from contributing nations. It is a purely defensive mission. The RAF last participated in BAP in 2004/2005 with Tornado F3s.
The RAFs Typhoon is used to provide air policing within UK and Falkland Islands airspace as part of Quick Reaction Alert. A multi-role aircraft, it is capable of being deployed in the full spectrum of air operations, from air policing through to high intensity conflict

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the power and grace of a Royal Air Force Typhoon FGR4 soaring through the skies over Lithuania. The four aircraft have been deployed to Siauliai Air Base as part of NATO's Baltic Air Policing mission, demonstrating the alliance's commitment to supporting and reassuring its Eastern member states. Baltic Air Policing is a crucial defensive task undertaken by rotating air defence fighter aircraft from contributing nations. In this case, it is the RAF's turn to participate, marking their return after their last involvement in 2004/2005 with Tornado F3s. The Typhoon, known for its versatility and multi-role capabilities, plays a vital role in providing air policing within UK and Falkland Islands airspace as part of Quick Reaction Alert. As tensions rise in the region, NATO's presence serves as a deterrent against any potential threats. This deployment showcases not only the impressive capabilities of these advanced fighter jets but also highlights the solidarity among NATO allies. The RAF Typhoon FGR4 stands ready to defend and protect both national territories and international airspace should high-intensity conflicts arise. Its sleek design and cutting-edge technology make it an invaluable asset for any air operation scenario. In this photograph, we witness strength in motion as this formidable jet traverses Lithuanian skies – a symbol of unwavering commitment to collective security within NATO.
