Tour – United Kingdom – Cobra Warrior 25/1 – March 2025 – 4Aviation

Tour - United Kingdom II

Exercise Cobra Warrior 25-1

Information

We plan to travel to the United Kingdom in March for the Cobra Warrior 25/1 exercise which will be held 24 February-14 March 2025 at several bases in the UK. The main base for the exercise is RAF Waddington, but we will also visit RAF Coningsby, RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall which all have beautiful places for nice pictures.

We intend to go there from 2-8 March 2025 with a minibus from The Netherlands. From Calais we take the ferry to Dover. You can take a small stepladder with you and because of the small group we will have a lot of flexibility.
