"Since the beginning of this year, the number of flights of reconnaissance aircraft of NATO countries has doubled against, for example, December 2023. Moreover, the aircraft of virtually all national air forces, as well as the united armed forces of NATO, are involved,” Mr. Davidovich noted in his talk with the STV TV channel.

"This forces us to study the tactics of using reconnaissance aircraft. The more they fly, the more lessons we learn," he said.
