The UK sent jets from RAF Leuchars in Scotland to “determine the identity of unknown aircraft” on Wednesday, a spokesman for the UK Ministry of Defence said.
“The aircraft were subsequently identified as Russian military aircraft,” he said.
The Netherlands sent two F-16s from Volkel air base to intercept two Russian TU-95 Bears.
“…The Danish scrambled and the English scrambled, to ensure they fly out of our air space,” said Dutch officer Major Wilko Ter Horst.
Anders Fridberg, spokesman for the Danish Defense Command, said, “We just followed them and just turned back when we reached Germany.”
