2 U.S. F-22 fighter jets in Poland for exercises with ally

WARSAW, Poland — Two U.S. stealth F-22 fighter jets have arrived in Poland to carry out combat air exercises for a day with the Polish air force.

The exercises are part of a broader U.S. policy of assurance to NATO allies in Eastern Europe worried about Russian aggression.

The two F-22 Raptor jets arrived today at Lask Air Base in central Poland. They are part of the first U.S. deployment of the high-tech jets to Europe.
