Operation Deliberate Guard
From Month/Year

December / 1997

Description

On 21 December 1996, the NATO air assets assigned to Operation Decisive Endeavour were transferred to support the Stabilization Force (NATO Operation Joint Guard) under the new NATO air operation name Operation Deliberate Guard. The operation involved almost 5500 personnel from 12 NATO nations, operating from five European NATO nations and from aircraft carriers in the Mediterranean.

The NAEWF aircraft provided surveillance and a picture of the air and ground situation for the SFOR and air component commanders. The seven aircraft assigned to the operation were normally forward deployed to Preveza, Greece or Trapani, Italy. Two British and one French AWACS aircraft also supported the operation.
