Pair of Typhoons dropping booms over Israel.
Caught them on ADSB doing 1100+ kts @27000ft

Not quite mach 2 but getting close.
Planes flying from Cyprus to Iraq/middle east area transit through Israeli air space.
They certainly look like they were in a hurry.
My guess is they are flying quick reaction for allied assets in the middle east area.
They dropped off ADSB shortly after I capped them.
There are troops from various NATO countries as well as special forces doing their stuff all around the region.
They might just be fooling around & showing off with the Israeli air force.
Who knows what exactly is going on with them. It could just be a glitch with ADSB.
Planes transit from Cyprus through Israeli airspace to the mid-east frequently to support operations.
I just report what I see and try to make my best guess as to what is happening.
A pair of British fighters dropping booms there is not normal.
The ship sails stormy seas like that without capsizing. Why would it then capsize on what is effectively a millpond.
If only someone had invented a helo to carry shipping containers. oh wait a moment.
