NATO jets in Baltic scrambled once to intercept Russian plane

On Sep. 15, NATO fighter jets were scrambled to intercept a SU-35 of the Russian Federation flying from mainland Russia to Estonian border and back, without the flight plan, without using the onboard transponder, without keeping radio contact with the regional air traffic control centre.

The NATO air policing mission in the Baltic states is carried out from Lithuania and Estonia.
