The Swedish Air Force Gulfstream S102B “Korpen” (12003) Electronic Intelligence plane arrived yesterday in Souda Bay AB made today its first mission over eastern Mediterranean Sea.

Based in Souda Bay the aircraft is so far from home to acquire new baseline data for Russian assets (S-400 missile system) deployed in Syria.

We’ve already tracked a korpen over eastern Mediterranea Sea on May 2018, April 2019 and on October 2019.
