Last year, between Nov. 24 and 28, Israel held Exercise “Blue Flag” which involved about 100 aircraft belonging to the Israeli, Italian, Greek and U.S. air forces.

The following video, mainly taken from the cockpit of a Hellenic Air Force F-16 Block 52, gives an rough idea of the type of missions flown (at least by the Greek assets) during the largest joint-military exercise in Israel’s history.

Enjoy.
