F-35B Lightnings of 617 Squadron took off from RAF Marham today to head to Iceland to take part in Enhanced Air Policing as part of NATO's assurance measures. British F-35 jets will arrive in Iceland today to take part in a NATO air policing mission. This is the first time British F-35s will have taken part in any NATO air policing missions. This mission will see RAF pilots from the ‘Dambusters’ squadron defending the alliance’s airspace in the Artic Region. NATO air policing is a permanent peacetime mission, that preserves the security of Allied skies. It is a collective task and involves the continuous presence of fighter aircraft and crews, which are ready to react quickly to possible airspace violations. ?This latest mission comes as the Prime Minister underlined the UK’s cast iron commitment to NATO at its Summit in Washington last month, as he emphasised his determination to safeguard the future of the Alliance and face down global threats to Britain and its western allies.
