US McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagles are settling in at Ämari alongside the F-16 Fighting Falcons of the Belgian Air Force, which have been based there since early December. While the US jets were originally due to stay in Estonia for a few days as part of an exercise, that stay has now been extended to an open-ended deployment, ETV news show 'Aktuaalne kaamera' (AK) reported Tuesday night.

American fighter jets will continue to stay in Estonia for "some time", an official from the U.S. Embassy has said. The planes participated in NATO allied exercises last week.
