Yesterday we tracked a surveillance mission conducted by an Italian Air Force CAEW in the Black Sea theater, an area we hadn’t seen activity in for some time.
The aircraft, a Gulfstream E.550 CAEW (Conformal Airborne Early Warning), identified with registration code MM62303 and callsign PERSE071, took off from Pratica di Mare AB and orbited between 10:30 CET and 15:30 CET along the Romanian coast near the Danube Delta.
The aircraft then appears to have made a stop at the Constanta base, likely to refuel, before returning to Pratica di Mare AB, where it landed 11 hours after its morning takeoff.
