NATO large-scale live-fire air defence exercise Ramstein Legacy 22 takes place across Europe.

NATO and partner nations are taking part in exercise Ramstein Legacy 22, NATO large-scale live-fire air defence exercise. Seventeen Allied and partner countries are exercising in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland with aircraft, missile defence systems and electronic warfare systems from 6 to 10 June 2022.


Around 50 aircraft have flown from bases across Europe, and 17 surface-based air and missile defence systems are being integrated and tested in live-fire scenarios.

Footage includes live-fire demonstrations in Ustka, Poland with Czech, French, Polish, Slovak and UK troops demonstrating various weapons systems, including the Starstreak air defence system.

Also included is an interview with Colonel Graham Taylor, Commander of 7 Air Defence Group, 12 Regiment Royal Artillery, British Army.

‘Technical matters are often challenging because this is a high-technical capability. You know, air defence is literally rocket science. And it needs it needs some detailed, complicated technical support to make sure it all integrates together. So largely when we come physically together, that's what we mostly focus on. And then the procedures following NATO's standard doctrine and our own standard operating procedures allows us then to conduct our activities together.’
