The Typhoon jets were launched from RAF Lossiemouth in Moray and joined by a Voyager air-to-air refuelling tanker from RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire.
An RAF spokesman declined to provide more information on the operation until it is over.
An image taken from Flightradar24.com shows the refuelling tanker's involvement in the operation.
The RAF routinely intercepts aircraft approaching what it describes as the "UK area of interest".
In November 2021, jets were launched in response to Russian TU-160 Blackjack strategic bombers.
Officials said at the time the fighters escorted the Russian aircraft out of the "area of interest" and that the bombers did not enter UK airspace.
