By Reuters News

- Sweden will from October deploy Gripen fighter jets to Poland as part of a NATO airspace surveillance mission, the Nordic country's government said on Wednesday.

  • The jets will contribute to NATO's air and missile defence and protect a logistics hub in southeastern Poland that is used for military and civilian support to Ukraine, the Nordic country's government said

  • Sweden, which joined NATO in 2024, also in 2025 contributed jets to the mission

  • "The serious security situation and the recurring violations of NATO airspace show the need for high military readiness on the eastern flank," Defence Minister Pal Jonson said in a statement

  • The fighter jets, which are produced by Swedish defence group Saab SAABb.ST, will mainly be based in Sweden while contributing to the mission, the government said
