Finland prepares for war with Russia: Why it is strengthening its air force
The air force is at the heart of the strategy, equipping American-made F-35As with AIM-120D3 air-to-air missiles.
Finland is bolstering its military forces in anticipation of a potential conflict with Russia, as highlighted in a report by The National Interest. According to the publication, the country's concern is evident as the Finnish Ministry of Defense proceeds with an extensive upgrade of its weaponry.

At the center of this strategy is the air force, which is equipping its American-made F-35A jets with AIM-120D3 air-to-air missiles. These specific missiles are designed to strike targets at medium range, even before the opponent becomes visible to the aircraft.

Tensions in relations with Russia have peaked in recent years as NATO increases its military presence near the western Russian borders. The Alliance, through its new initiatives, argues that these moves are necessary to deter Russian aggression, while Moscow views them as provocative.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly declared that Russia has no intention of attacking anyone. He emphasizes that Western leaders are using the imaginary threat of Russia to distract their citizens from internal problems. The situation remains tense, and the impact of these strategic moves is expected to have serious consequences for the region.
