The Israeli Air Force participated this week in the multinational Iniochos aerial exercise hosted by the Hellenic Air Force in Greece, the IDF said on Friday.

The exercise brought together dozens of aircraft and units from 12 nations—Greece, Israel, France, India, Italy, Montenegro, Poland, Qatar, Slovenia, Spain, the United Arab Emirates and the United States for joint training in complex combat scenarios, including dogfights, air-to-surface strikes, and responses to advanced surface-to-air missile threats.

Israel’s 122nd Squadron, which operates the “Eitam” G550 airborne early warning aircraft, took part in the drills.

According to the IDF, the deployment is part of efforts to strengthen strategic cooperation, improve operational readiness, and expose Israeli aircrews to unfamiliar terrain and evolving aerial threats.

The annual exercise is considered a key component of regional military cooperation between NATO members and close defense partners such as Israel.
