Italian Air Force • NATO Air Policing over Iceland with Six F-35 Aircraft

Italian Air Force

The Italian Air Force’s 32nd Wing, with six F-35 aircraft, has recently assumed responsibility for the NATO air policing mission in Icelandic skies. Iceland does not have a full range of air defence assets, so NATO Allies, in conjunction with the Icelandic authorities, maintain a periodic presence of Allied fighter aircraft at Keflavík Airport.
