The U.S. Air Force MC-130J Commando II transport aircraft will participate in the Utti Jaeger Regiment’s training activity during 28 – 31 January 2025.
The MC-130J transport aircraft will participate in the development of Utti Jaeger Regiment’s procedures for interoperable operating capacity in airlift and transport in late January. The special force’s procedures for airlift and transport involve, for instance, airdrops of personnel and materiel by parachute drop.
The MC-130J transport aircraft -assisted parachuting activity will be participated by both the Regiment’s service personnel and parachute-trained paratrooper jaegers conducting conscript service.
Conducted mainly in the area of Kymenlaakso, flight activity may cause noise disturbance.
All communications concerning the Utti Jaeger Regiment’s training exercise activity are kindly asked to be submitted primarily via e-mail or by using the feedback form available online at: maavoimat.fi/utin-jaakarirykmentti/yhteystiedot.
