Confirmed Swedish Grippens for Joint Warrior while on the base this morning testing some new gear for work. BAF C130 was carrying explosives, there was also an A109 with some 3 star on board.

Belgian A-109? Don't suppose you know whether it's involved in the exercise?

I noted A109SP GZ100 northbound over Yorkshire on SBS this morning so presume it was this one rather than a Belgian one ?
