It had been a while since we tracked flights from Italy to Rzeszow, the hub in Poland for military aid to Ukraine.
This afternoon, an Italian Air Force Lockheed C-130J (reg. MM62194), took off from Gioia del Colle AB and landed around 4:00 PM CEST at the Polish airport.
It’s worth noting that Gioia del Colle isn’t a base from which we’ve previously seen flights to Rzeszow originate (they usually depart from Pisa, Pratica di Mare, or Verona).
