The 493rd Fighter Squadron spent the month of July perpetuating NATO's 24/7/365 willingness and commitment to safeguarding our allies through the Icelandic Air Policing mission, aiding the Icelandic Coast Guard in securing and maintaining the sovereignty of their airspace.

Given its unique location, Allies, in conjunction with the Icelandic authorities, have agreed to maintain a periodic presence of NATO fighter aircraft based at Keflavik Air Base to help keep Icelandic airspace safe and secure.
