2026 is a partial year: the bars run to 30 Sep 2026.
By event type
7 events logged · 1 airframe lost
These totals count what GlobalMilitary.net has logged from public reports since 2022, not a complete register: an event we have not recorded is not an event that did not happen. Coverage of the tracked wars is much denser than coverage of peacetime events, so the two do not compare directly.
