L’Italia schiera i caccia Eurofighter Typhoon in Lituania, Perché? Si prevede che il traffico aereo civile in Europa calerà quest’anno del 60% rispetto al 2019, a causa delle restrizioni per il Covid-19. Ciò mettendo a rischio oltre 7 milioni di posti di lavoro. Cresce in compenso il traffico aereo militare. Venerdì 28 agosto, sei bombardieri strategici B-52 della US Air Force hanno trasvolato in un solo giorno tutti e 30 i paesi della Nato in Nordamerica ed Europa, affiancati nei diversi tratti da 80 cacciabombardieri dei paesi alleati. Questa grande esercitazione denominata «Cielo Alleato» – ha dichiarato il segretario generale della Nato Jens Stoltenberg – dimostra «il potente impegno degli Stati uniti verso gli Alleati e conferma che siamo in grado di scoraggiare l’aggressione».
Evidente l’allusione alla «aggressione russa» in Europa. I B-52, trasferiti il 22 agosto dalla base aerea Minot in Nord Dakota a quella di Fairford in Gran Bretagna, non sono vecchi aerei della Guerra fredda usati ormai solo per le parate. Continuamente ammodernati, hanno conservato il loro ruolo di bombardieri strategici a lungo raggio. Ora vengono ulteriormente potenziati. La US Air Force, con una spesa di 20 miliardi di dollari, doterà tra breve 76 B-52 di nuovi motori. Operazione che permetterà ai bombardieri di volare per 8.000 km senza rifornimento in volo, trasportando ciascuno 35 tonnellate di bombe e missili a testata convenzionale o nucleare. La US Air Force, lo scorso aprile, ha affidato alla Raytheon Co. la costruzione di un nuovo missile da crociera a lungo raggio, armato di testata nucleare, per i bombardieri B-52. Con questi e altri bombardieri strategici da attacco nucleare, compresi i B-2 Spirit, la US Air Force ha effettuato sull’Europa dal 2018 oltre 200 sortite, soprattutto sul Baltico e il Mar Nero a ridosso dello spazio aereo russo. A queste esercitazioni partecipano i paesi europei della Nato, in particolare l’Italia.
Quando il 28 agosto un B-52 ha sorvolato il nostro paese, gli si sono affiancati caccia italiani per simulare una missione congiunta di attacco. Subito dopo cacciabombardieri Eurofighter Typhoon dell’Aeronautica italiana sono partiti per schierarsi nella base di Siauliai in Lituania, supportati da un centinaio di militari specializzati. A partire da oggi 1° settembre vi resteranno per 8 mesi, fino all’aprile 2021, per «difendere» lo spazio aereo del Baltico. È la quarta missione Nato di «polizia aerea» effettuata nel Baltico dalla nostra Aeronautica. I caccia dell’Italia pronti 24 ore su 24 allo scramble, al decollo su allarme per intercettare aerei «sconosciuti», che sono sempre aerei russi in volo tra qualche aeroporto interno e l’exclave russa di Kaliningrad attraverso lo spazio aereo internazionale sul Baltico.
La base lituana di Siauliai, in cui sono schierati, è stata potenziata dagli Stati uniti, che ne hanno triplicato la capacità investendovi 24 milioni di euro. Il perché è chiaro: la base aerea dista appena 220 km da Kaliningrad e 600 da San Pietroburgo, distanza che un caccia tipo l’Eurofighter Typhoon percorre in pochi minuti.
Perché la Nato schiera a ridosso della Russia questi e altri aerei a duplice capacità convenzionale e nucleare? Non certo per difendere i paesi baltici da un attacco russo che, se avvenisse, significherebbe l’inizio della guerra mondiale termonucleare. stesso avverrebbe se gli aerei Nato attaccassero dal Baltico le città russe limitrofe.
La vera ragione dello schieramento
La vera ragione di tale schieramento è quella di accrescere la tensione, fabbricando l’immagine di un pericoloso nemico, la Russia, che si prepara ad attaccare l’Europa. È la strategia della tensione attuata da Washington, con la complicità dei governi e dei parlamenti europei e della stessa Unione europea. Tale strategia comporta un crescente aumento della spesa militare a scapito di quella sociale.
Un esempio: il costo di un’ora di volo di un caccia Eurofighter è stato calcolato dalla stessa Aeronautica in 66.000 euro (compreso l’ammortamento dell’aereo). Una somma, in denaro pubblico, superiore a due retribuzioni medie lorde annue. Ogni volta che un Eurofighter decolla per «difendere» lo spazio aereo del Baltico, brucia in un’ora, in Italia, due posti di lavoro.
