Not as many Cobra Warrior participants as usual, due to the situation in Ukraine: German AF Tornado ECR x 6, Italian AF Typhoon x 6, Italian AF Gulfstream 550 and a NATO E-3A.
The temporary parking restrictions around the base were severe, with the WAVE car park being the only realistic option. However, runway 20 was in use so this wasn't a problem.

This G550 is one of only two delivered to the Italian AF earlier this year. An odd-looking thing!
