Around 600 British and French paratroopers jumped from four RAF A400M Atlas aircraft over Germany in one of the largest airborne drills in two decades. Exercise Rhino Titan, at the Sennelager training area, involved about 2,500 troops facing a simulated enemy using drones and electronic warfare. Defence Secretary Wes Streeting said the drill showed allies could deliver rapid airborne power anywhere to defend Nato territory.
