Armed Forces - Multiple fighter planes engaged in a large-scale drill at Ramstein US Airbase.

Several aircraft from NATO countries' fighter jets engaged in a massive training session at the U.S. Airbase Ramstein on Thursday. The goal of this exercise is to boost camaraderie and teamwork within the air forces. The event was described as a "friendly competition."

Fighter planes like the Eurofighter Typhoon, Dassault Rafale C, and F-16s from Denmark's Air Force took off from the base in the Palatinate. Ramstein has served as the meeting spot for the Contact Group, a coalition formed to help support Kyiv, since Russia launched its crisis in Ukraine in 2022.
