Air Defender 2023 will be the first exercise in which Finland, as a NATO member, will participate.
Ummm, Finland is not a member of Nato, it hasn’t been voted on yet. Turkey is not “all in” on that Nation joining.

You’re a few days behind on the news. Turkey approved Finland a week ago and NATO hoisted the Finnish flag at NATO HQ on the 4th.

Ummm, you’re late to the dance. Both Turkey and Hungary voted to approve Finland’s membership and the official ceremony was a couple days ago. Thus, Finland is now officially a full NATO member.

Turkey withdrew its objection to Finland. Finland officially joined NATO by filing the last necessary paperwork on April 4.

Incorrect, and, I would add that Finland has participated with exercises with the USA many times before, just not as a NATO member.
