A-10s in salute to USS Nebraska's deployment.
The same thing with German frigate
Baden-Württemberg in Rota last tuesday. Overflight by a Spanish A400M along with two Spanish and two German Eurofighters.
The ship has been deployed away from Germany since October and last week set sail for a show-of-force cruise around the world which will last until next December.
Highlight of the cruise will be a joint force RIMPAC participation in Hawaii, for which she will be joined by a strike wing of 42 (!) German, Spanish and French aircraft - which are on a separate 2-month around-the-world tour simultaneously.
She met up with AOR
Frankfurt am Main, which will escort her on the cruise, yesterday in the middle Atlantic. The AOR was similarly saluted as she left (the same day, 2000 km away) by an A400M in formation flight with two Eurofighters and two Tornados.
