A U.K. Royal Air Force A400M Atlas C.1 aircraft assigned to RAF Brize Norton offloads U.S. Marines and U.K. Royal Marines, along with two Joint Light Tactical Vehicles, on Jan Mayen Island, Norway, Aug. 29, 2026, during Operation Atlantic City 26. The rapid intra-theater insertion demonstrated NATO agility and combined logistics capabilities required to project combat power into austere and contested terrain across the High North. Atlantic City 26 is a Norwegian-led trilateral readiness initiative with the United Kingdom and United States, designed to develop and demonstrate expeditionary advanced base capabilities and validate combined fires, maritime domain awareness, and sea denial to reinforce the security and stability of the High North. Jan Mayen is sovereign Norwegian territory in an isolated part of the Norwegian Sea, approximately 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) from mainland Norway. At the same time, the island occupies an important geostrategic position north of the Greenland-Iceland-U.K. gap, an area of water strategically significant to the defense of the U.S. homeland and northern Europe.
