airspace incident: Annaburg German Air Force site, Saxony-Anhalt (Arrow-3 deployment site) (2025-12-01)
/ date of the event
What happened
Three suspected Russian drones overflew the site of the Arrow-3 anti-ballistic missile deployment at the Annaburg German Air Force base in Saxony-Anhalt. A Bundeswehr rapid reaction detachment launched its own drone to intercept and, after making visual contact with one intruder, troops attempted to shoot it down with G27P assault rifles fitted with Israeli Smash X4 smart sights, without success.
