Everything about Latvian Air Force totally explained
Latvian Air Force (
Latvian:
Latvijas Gaisa spēki) is the
aviation branch of the
Latvian armed forces. The total number of personnel is 247. The air force has no air combat capability, thus the defence of Latvian air space is maintained by
NATO, with rotating detachments of four aircraft to
Lithuania at four-monthly intervals (see
Baltic Air Policing).
