Video Of RAF Jets Intercepting 10 Russian Aircraft In Single Mission

In late July as part of NATO’s ongoing mission to police Baltic airspace, ‪RAF‬ Typhoons intercepted 10 Russian aircraft during a single Baltic Air Patrol, Quick Reaction Alert mission.
 
The Typhoon aircraft from 6 (Fighter) Squadron were launched after multiple groups of aircraft were detected by NATO air defences in international airspace near to the Baltic States.
 
Above we see video of the intercept itself.
