In Russian news: America is flying in international airspace close to Russia.
-
The Russians flew their outdated TU-95 bomber still carrying the manned tail gunner firing the 23-mm rear gun to protect against “Cold War” era fighter jets. The Chinese used their H6 long-range bomber; at least the Chinese got rid of the “Cold War” era tail gunner in their bombers. The Russian and Chinese long-range bomber were intercepted by US F-22 and F-35 and Canadian F/A-18. The F-22 Raptor fifth generation fighters were flown by the Alaskan Air Nation Guard against the outdated bombers.

Oh they're really trying aren't they?

Let me go watch Deadpool 3 before WW3, I already bought tickets and it starts in an hour
-
They are testing the water.
-
Russia is right there, why shouldn't they be flying there
-
They were flying in International air space. Like any other nation has a right to do. Why add the second fear mongering beat of “off the coast of Alaska”? Jeez! 🤦
-
"Oh no, ww3!!!" ... and it's a giant nothing burger.
-
There are over 800+ known American military bases worldwide. Russia has 9 military bases worldwide.
-
It’s a threat, they just don’t realize it yet.
-
dont cry muricans its international airspace and freedom of navigation
-
Russia is close to the United States so it makes sense. Russia is always flying pretty close, not to mention their subs are continually very close to the East and West coasts.
-
This is why it's important to make sure that Ukraine doesn't get taken by Russia Alaska was most recently owned by Russia before we bought it. When Trump was President a large nuclear containing ship went through and moored outside of Alaska don't know if it's still there but if you think that Alaska is so far away from Russia you haven't been paying attention no different than Ukraine if they want it
-
No fallout reference? Okay fine ill leave!
-
This is Russia and China saying Trump must be voted for president in this year's election.
-
What comes around, goes around. American planes fly outside Chinese airspace all the time. This is just a reciprocal response.
-
Would you intercept me….
-
they can do whatever the hell they want
-
Testing the waters?
-
If willie brown's chew toy was president, what would she do about this?
