CommentAnother P8 flying out to the East Med, passing the P8 it is relieving. This is the first time we see this kind of batton-passing between P8s. Trackers have issues with Navy P8s because for some reason the registrations of the Navy's P8 are missing or AWOL and there's little point for them to show a flight with "no callsign" and all other information "N/A".

For some reason the Navy P8's registration data is largely missing. So the mode-s address is used to identify them.
