What happened? Hungarian pilots intercepted Romanians in Hungarian airspace – PHOTOS
Thankfully, it was just a drill, which was necessary to maintain and develop the skills of the Romanian and Hungarian pilots.
According to the Facebook page of the MH vitéz Szentgyörgyi DezsÅ‘ 101. RepülÅ‘dandár (the 101st aviation brigade headquartered in Kecskemét, Central Hungary), Romanian and Hungarian pilots trained together in Romania’s airspace.
The Interceptor 2024 military drill aimed to help Romanian and Hungarian pilots practice aerial combats and interception. Such drills have become a tradition lately, helping to improve the skills of the pilots.

Hungarian pilots in Romanian airspace
First, Hungarian Gripen fighter jets intercepted their Romanian ‘adversaries’ flying on F-16 fighters in Romanian airspace. Then, they practised 2v2 BVR (Beyond Visual Range) aerial combat. In the second phase, they flew to Hungarian airspace, and the Romanian pilots intercepted their Hungarian colleagues and practised 2v2 BVR again.

According to the Facebook post, such training is necessary to develop the pilots’ skills, help protect Hungary’s and Romania’s airspace, and strengthen the cooperation of the NATO member states.

Don’t forget to mention who the real adversary is who you are practising against. I think the name starts with an “R” but in Hungary it is tilos to say it.
