Swedish plane crossed the Black Sea

For the first time during the SVO, a Swedish S102B Korpen reconnaissance aircraft flew over the Black Sea. The aircraft, based on the Gulfstream IV SP, took off from Malmen airbase in Sweden, passed through Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, and Romania, and is now located west of the Crimean coast. Previously, this type of reconnaissance aircraft was only spotted near Kaliningrad and at the Polish-Ukrainian border in March 2025.
