I think the Beech King Air 350 ‘special mission plane', altitude-capable UAVs (50000 feet or above), Gulfstream ‘special mission airplane', Poseidon MRA-1, Saab 340 SIGINT, and P3C Orion flying over the Baltic Sea indirectly contribute to keeping peace.
I joined the flight tracking and planespotters group(either on reddit, FB, fightercontrol forum,etc) back in 2016-2017, and watching air traffic information during the Russo-Ukrainian(2022 til present) war has never been this exciting

Interesting stuff found in drones they downed over Poland

Quote:
Russian forces had been preparing strikes on Poland and Lithuania for months, using 4G modems with Polish and Lithuanian SIM cards to test drone connectivity as early as June, according to the Ukrainian defense news outlet Defense Express.
...
In early July, Polish investigators revealed that wreckage from Russian drones shot down in Ukraine contained 4G modems equipped with SIM cards from Polish mobile operators, as reported by Polish journalist Marek Budzisz. Later, a SIM card from a Lithuanian operator was also discovered in another drone.
Analysts say this detail directly points to Russia’s preparation for drone incursions into NATO airspace, as Moscow tested mobile network connections in advance. The findings were reported to partners in Poland and Lithuania. Still, the revelations triggered little reaction domestically — even as Russian drones began entering Polish airspace regularly during the summer.
This puts in perspective some recent claims by Trump that downplay it as drones intended for the Ukraine war which inadvertently end up over Polish airspace.

Don't forget that the drone is also equipped with extra fuel tank
that reminds me of a fighter jet with a conformal fuel tank
Shouldn't SIM card purchases go through a strict KYC process?
I'm curious what would be equivalent to a Rotax 914 engine for smaller drones... The Rotax 914 is quite legendary and many military drones use it
