Europe’s digital lifelines run straight through Irish waters. Undersea cables carry the vast majority of transatlantic data traffic — finance, communications, and cloud services — making Ireland a strategic chokepoint. But can the country actually defend these vital assets?
In this video, we take a deep dive into Ireland’s defence options, combining aircraft capabilities with geopolitical and economic realities. From the C-295 Persuader protecting the seas, to fighter jets like the Saab Gripen, FA-50, M-346 Master, Eurofighter Typhoon, and Dassault Rafale, we explore the pros, cons, and political pressures shaping each option.
We also look at the hypothetical deployment of F-16s and F-18s, Ireland’s low defence spending, the European push for stronger national security, and the country’s historic role in UN peacekeeping. This is more than an aviation discussion — it’s about whether Ireland could be Europe’s Achilles heel in a future crisis.
