SECURING THE SKIES: ROYAL AIR FORCE TYPHOONS SCRAMBLED TO INTERCEPT RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT
Priority Eurofight Typhoon Aircraft returning to Leuchars Station due to a scramble call out for Quick Reaction Alert (QRA).
A small number of Typhoon Aircraft have temporarily relocated to Leuchars Station from RAF Lossiemouth to cover Quick Reaction Alert (QRA) during the bolthole period. This is due to the runway being resurfaced at RAF Lossiemouth for the arrival of the new P-8A Aircraft that will be homed at Lossie from Mid October.

SECURING THE SKIES: ROYAL AIR FORCE TYPHOONS SCRAMBLED TO INTERCEPT RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT
Priority Eurofight Typhoon Aircraft returning to Leuchars Station due to a scramble call out for Quick Reaction Alert (QRA).
Live-armed QRA Typhoon fighters were scrambled for the third time in six days today. This time they intercepted Russian military aircraft operating over the North Sea near UK airspace.
The Typhoons, flown by pilots from RAF Lossiemouth, launched from Leuchars Station, in Fife where they are temporarily deployed while runway resurfacing takes place at RAF Lossiemouth.
They were assisted by an RAF Voyager from RAF Brize Norton which provided air to air refuelling for the Typhoons, and a NATO E-3A Sentry Airborne Early Warning aircraft that was re-tasked from a training mission nearby.

Personnel from RAF Odiham have been deployed in non-combat roles in Mali since 2018 with the aircraft contributing a unique logistical capability to the French-led operation. The Chinooks and aircrew allow French troops to cover a much larger field of operations by moving personnel to the front-line of activity, eliminating the need for dangerous road moves, and help move vital support equipment to strategic locations.© MOD / Crown Copyright / eyevine

RAF TYPHOONS INTERCEPT RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT OFF SCOTTISH COAST
RAF Typhoon aircraft from RAF Lossiemouth that are currently operating from Leuchars Station have intercepted two Russian aircraft off the Scottish Coast.
Quick Reaction Alert Typhoons are currently based at former RAF Leuchars, which is now the British Army’s Leuchars Station, the home of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards. They recently relocated temporarily while the intersection of the runways at RAF Lossiemouth is resurfaced and this is the first scramble since the Typhoons have returned to the former RAF Station.
The Russian aircraft were identified as a TU-142 Bear F maritime reconnaissance and anti-submarine warfare aircraft. This scramble has been caused by the Russian aircraft entering the UK Flight Information Region, the UK’s controlled zone of international airspace. Monitoring this zone ensures the safe passage for all other aircraft, including civilian transatlantic airliners that are under UK civilian air traffic control.

CH47 asset rotation. Oshkosh redeployment following a reduction from full night stop to a day tasking. Excellent effort from all parties, TSW, 1AMW, 99Sqn ALM, Op NEWCOMBE DLG, Op NEWCOMBE CH47 Engineers. TSW were able to, at very short notice provide, the C17 with an uplift of fuel from the online Oshkosh, whilst simultaneously on-loading the returning Oshkosh. Fantastic flexibility enabled the return of a high profile asset, against a challenging timeframe. This task highlights the “can do” attitude found within the Logistics Branch and Trades.
