We felt privileged to be invited as a guest for the exercise Iniochos 2022. Despite the dark weather, the stop of a first wave by emerging Sahara sand, we were able to get a good view of the exercise.
An exercise on the south side of the NATO area brings together many special participants. In addition to the Greek host country, there were participants from America, Israel, Slovenia, Cyprus and Italy.

Cyprus was special, they do not often participate in this type of exercises, which ensured rapid interventions in case of accidents with an AW139 search and rescue helicopter. Slovenia's Pilatus planes provided the slow moving roll between all the fast jets.
Despite the bad weather we had a very nice time and we felt very welcomed by the Greek Air Force.
