In brief

One of Allied Air Command's three combined air operations centres, which NATO says covers airspace north of the Alps — the centre through which Baltic Air Policing has been controlled. NATO states that the relevant centre decides which air base an interception is flown from and that the three centres' areas overlap for redundancy; it publishes nothing more about this one, and the centre's own site is closed to tools, so this record stops at NATO's sentence.
