I hadn't seen these before. EUROFIGHTER 2000

They come from RAF Coningsby. If you zoom in you can see the sheds where they kept, south of the runway. Even more interesting if you get a google sat view and zoom in!

 

i see tons of Fighters every day

 

They're not mode 5?

 

nope, i See EF-2000's, Lakenheath F-15C and E's all the time, BAE Hawks, F-16's..... Europe is where you see the most fighters. typically around 2-5 AM Central time since i see them 3-6AM Eastern.

 

I think Mode 5 is not a thing outside the US.

If you want to see fighters, check out the airspace over Belgium (they fly F-16s), southern England (as you might have noticed - EUFIs and F-15s, sometimes also Tornados), Netherlands (they seem to have bought a bunch of F-35s, I spotted one a while ago) or southern Germany for EUFIs out of Manching (near Ingolstadt).

Their operation times are usually European daytime (might be very early in the morning in the US... ;-))

 

it is a thing for USAF Birds operating outside of the US

 

Well, at least to my knowledge it's at least not illegal to try and decode it... ;-)

 

Many were over UK and Belgium around 10:00 CDT. Even saw a few F-15's and 16's over Belgium.

 

There's a belgian F16 over UK now....
