NATO begins nuclear deterrence exercises involving aircraft from eight air bases

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization begins the Steadfast Noon exercise. NATO nuclear deterrence measures are implemented every October, NATO informed.

"Nuclear deterrence is the cornerstone of Allied security," said NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. "Steadfast Noon is an important test of the alliance's nuclear deterrence that sends a clear signal to any adversary that NATO will protect all allies."

NATO nuclear exercises are an event held every October. The Steadfast Noon exercise will involve various types of aircraft from eight air bases, including nuclear-armed jets, bombers, escort fighters, refueling aircraft and aircraft capable of reconnaissance and radio-electronic warfare.

This year, the exercises include flights mainly in host countries Belgium and the Netherlands, as well as in the airspace of Denmark, Great Britain and the North Sea. Planning for the exercises began a year ago, and 13 allies will send planes to participate in the exercises.

As mentioned in the report, NATO is taking steps to ensure the alliance's security, reliability and effectiveness of nuclear deterrence. For example, this year, the first F-35A fighter from the Netherlands was declared ready for nuclear missions.

The declaration of the NATO Washington summit clearly states that "the main purpose of NATO's nuclear potential is to maintain peace, prevent coercion and deter aggression." It states that "as long as nuclear weapons exist, NATO will remain a nuclear alliance."
