U.S. Air Forces in Europe – Air Forces Africa (USAFE-AFA)

U.S. Air Force major command headquartered at Ramstein Air Base, Germany. Responsible for USAF forces and operations across Europe, Africa, the Middle East (in coordination with centcom), and the Arctic.

UAP reporting

USAFE-AFA’s 48th Fighter Wing at raf-lakenheath publicly reported multiple sUAS incursions over raf-lakenheath, raf-mildenhall, and raf-feltwell in late November 2024, with raf-fairford added days later. The disclosures contributed to political pressure on the UK MoD, which responded in December 2024 with luke-pollard’s “no military threat” statement (src-uk-mod-uap-no-threat-2024).
