During the upcoming work week, the German Air Force stationed in Emari will fly over Eurofighter fighter jets over Estonia.

The flights will take place at a height of at least 152 meters, that is, 500 feet, and preferably far from populated areas, the headquarters of the Estonian Defense Forces reported.

NATO countries allocate certain parts of their airspace to conduct exercises and training sessions for the Air Force, including low-level flights.

Flights are coordinated with the aviation department and joint-stock dispatching company Lennuliiklusteenindus.

According to the decision of the North Atlantic Alliance, NATO air forces rotate the airspace of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania from March 29, 2004, when the Baltic States joined the alliance, notes postimees.

Protection of the airspace of the Baltic countries is part of the defense concept of NATO, the purpose of which is to save the resources of the member countries of the alliance by joint participation in various areas of defense.
