The United States has reportedly deployed submarine-hunting aircraft to Norway, specifically to Oslo's Gardermoen Airport, amid rising tensions in the Baltic region, according to a report from The Kyiv Independent. The P-8 aircraft, designed for anti-submarine warfare, surface surveillance, and intelligence gathering, was photographed at the airport. The exact timing of the deployment within the reporting window was not specified, but the news emerged on September 30th, 2025. This deployment comes as general tensions in the Baltic region are reportedly increasing. The P-8 Poseidon aircraft is a key asset for maritime surveillance and anti-submarine operations. Its presence in Norway suggests a heightened focus on monitoring activity in the Baltic Sea. In related military developments, expansion of a Russian kamikaze drone launch site in the Bryansk region has been completed. The expansion includes additional launch rails and underground storage areas for warheads and drones. Construction for this expansion reportedly began at the end of July 2025.
