Defence Secretary says the armed forces have shown their “commitment to protecting national security” after fighters scrambled to shadow two Russian aircrafts and submarine nearing UK waters.
The Royal Navy has shadowed a Russian attack submarine and corvette through the English Channel while RAF jets were scrambled to monitor two of Vladimir Putin’s aircraft.
In the past week Type 23 frigate HMS Iron Duke monitored the progress of Kilo-class submarine Novorossiysk and a supporting tug as it passed through the Dover Strait before a similar operation to shadow the corvette Stoiky and a tanker.
Patrol ship HMS Tyne was also involved in the operation to monitor the Stoiky.
