Yes, it seems a mixture of USAF, NATO, RAF and the odd other air force like Poland, Greece, Turkey, etc. I must admit, I know very little about war tactics so I was wondering what the point of these flights were other than having planes close to the action.
It is kind of worse than that our government has a habit of breaking the law and saying so sue me when it wants to do something. Windrush etc did sue and win. The gov just ignores the court if it feels like it.There's a leading question, letting some bias show there
At the risk of getting into politics rather than the thread subject the government have a decent majority, they could easily introduce legislation that would moot any court challenge. That they choose not to, and wring their hands about legal challenges, tells you they aren't as commited as they claim to be.
David Allen Green covered this very point early this week.

Class. I’m not usually a fan of “cancel culture” but I’m loving this.
They probably won’t do for a long time. Ukraine had 200 of the latest stinger missiles delivered yesterday that can take down a fighter jet in the right circumstances.
And today Germany is dumping its old stock of 2,700 Manpads to them. Apparently these are ancient so will be useless against modern fighter jets. But will be good for Russian helicopters and potentially Russian cargo planes depending on what height they are flying at (They have a ceiling)
But the pure fact they have 2,700 which is a huge number means they can afford to be a bit more speculative in firing them even when against the odds

So what is different about the Russian Crooks?
The expert mentioned Warsaw Ghetto and somewhere else.That seems to be the ratio if you have a good and highly competent army. Without that and in urban warfare it might even be much higher some expert was suggesting the other day
Seems more than usual circling about today. Even the Belgian Air Force are there although haven't seen any RAF today. Cheers for the info.Just had a look it seems to be lots of different planes to do lots of different things. Mobile command and control (Usually to direct operations but as US aren’t doing that I presume they are to advise Ukraine’s leaders), intelligence gathering and enemy movements, communication interception and jamming. And some more specialist ones like “nuke sniffers” which apparently the West developed to track Russian subs.
Assuming they are supporting Ukraine behind the scenes then they could be invaluable if Russia take out Ukraine’s own capabilities

4 of the top 5 tracked planes on flight radar are all nato big birds doing circles over poland & Romania. even one keeping an eye on kaliningrad by the looks.Seems more than usual circling about today. Even the Belgian Air Force are there although haven't seen any RAF today. Cheers for the info.
Theres a plane on there 'FISH01' near the Poland/Ukraine border, with pretty much 0 information. Not a clue what that means but it's intriguing nonetheless!2nd most tracked plane on flight radar... wonder what he's carrying...

Jesus H FuckIt seems that now US intelligence is suggesting the 40 mile convoy was less of a strategic invasion force and a number of different Russian troop movements that were falling over each other due to issues.
There were gaps in the convoy that may have made it look like they were staggering to avoid attack. But maybe just different units bunching together
