Two twin helicopters just flew over South Down, heading east, about 10 mins apart. Not on Fr24 - any takers?

Nothing in my Mode-S log that looks relevant unfortunately.  Running silent for interesting visitor?

They were low, definitely sub 1000ft. I didn't get a good look, it was dark, but twin engine, and heading straight East!

Perhaps related to Joint Warrior currently underway around Galloway?  There was helicopter activity from 21:00 to 23:30 yesterday.

Who knows! Had an afterthought that they could be related to a private operator down Carlingford lough

I think they where about 18,000ft over Belfast but climbing. heard first one but couldn't see it. fully thing though, when it got to Stroke City it did a hard right up Lough Foyle then about 10 mile of shore hooked left out to Atlantic, almost like they couldnt go over TOO airspace, but only realised last minute. picture link attached. second bird flew a straighter route out over NI airspace.
