There are, within the last 2 hours, Navy P-8A surveillance & recon aircraft on a rotating patrol over the E Med.
They are a 737 variant with added wideband satellite communication capability. It has enhanced Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and Anti-surface Warfare (ASuW) capabilities and expanded electronics for partner coordination.
We’ve definately got our eyes and ears open.
You are wrong.
