Misiunea dronelor olandeze MQ-9 Reaper în România a fost prelungită. Anunț al guvernului de la Haga, pe fondul tensiunilor cu Rusia

The Dutch MQ-9 Reaper drones' mission in Romania has been extended until December 31, 2027, amid rising tensions with Russia. These drones, based in Câmpia Turzii, support NATO's eastern flank defense and are part of the 'Air Shielding' operation. The extension comes as the U.S. reduces its military presence in Europe, increasing the importance of Dutch contributions. The Reapers are equipped for surveillance and strike missions, with capabilities to gather intelligence and engage targets. The U.S. has announced significant cuts to its military assets in NATO, affecting various aircraft and drones.
