The French Air Force is helping Poland secure the skies.

Since 24 February, Rafale fighter jets from Mont-de-Marsan Air Base in southern France have been flying Combat Air Patrol (CAP) missions over Poland, augmenting the Polish Air Force’s standing Air Policing efforts, as well as those of US Air Force fighters forward-deployed to Poland in the wake of Russia’s unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine.

NATO has since enhanced its defensive posture in the eastern part of the Alliance, with more land, air and maritime forces deployed across the NATO area from various Allies.

The Rafale have been aided in their mission by the French Air Force’s fleet of aerial refuelers, which help the fighters cover Polish airspace for longer periods of time.
