This morning, around 12:30 CET, an US Navy Lockheed EP-3E “Aries II” (161410) left Souda Bay AB to make a new ISR (Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) mission off Libya.

We don’t know the exact position of the aircraft but it’s sure that it was operating off western Libya.

The data available were:

United States Navy
United States Military
Lockheed P-3C Orion P3
Altitude: 7178 m
Duration: 27:42
Transponder: Mode-S

The same aircraft made a similar mission also yesterday.
