Washington DC (UPI) Sep 29, 2020

The USS Ross recently completed a series of tactical air defense exercises with NATO aircraft over the Baltic Sea, the Navy announced Tuesday.

"This exercise presents a unique training opportunity with our NATO Allies to increase our combined capability," Cmdr. John D. John, commanding officer aboard Ross, said in a press release. "Building on our collective interoperability helps to demonstrate our continued commitment to maintaining stability in the Baltic."

The Ross joined four Portuguese F-16s to simulate a variety of air defense scenarios.

On Monday, the Navy announced that the Ross had completed training exercises in the Baltic Sea with a ship of Poland's navy.

The Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer, which is forward-deployed to Rota, Spain, began its 10th Forward Deployed Naval Forces-Europe patrol at the end of August in the Sixth Fleet Area of Operations.

The vessel is one of four Navy destroyers currently based in Spain.

NASA plans as early as 2024 to fly the X-59 over select communities on missions to gather information about how the public will react to the level of quiet supersonic flight noise the aircraft is designed to produce - if they hear anything at all. Data collected will be shared with federal and internationa ... read more
