Two Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets scramble and intercept a foreign unidentified aircraft, then dogfight each other after the the C-130 is guided to landing.

The video shows the Demonstration at the 2022 Airpower Airshow in Zeltweg, Austria. All aircraft involved belong to the Austrian Airforce.

Gorgeous sight of Consolidated PBY-5Y Catalina flying boat taking off from North Sea Canal, Netherlands. The Consolidated PBY Catalina is a flying boat and amphibious aircraft that was produced in the 1930s and 1940s. In Canadian service it was known as the Canso. It was one of the most widely used seaplanes of World War II. Catalinas served with every branch of the United States Armed Forces and in the air forces and navies of many other nations. The last military PBYs served until the 1980s. As of 2021, 86 years after its first flight, the aircraft continues to fly as a waterbomber (or airtanker) in aerial firefighting operations in some parts of the world. None remain in military service.
