A pair of Su-27 drove an American bomber B-52H from the borders of Russia
We recently reported how Washington began strenuously move muscles in front of Moscow, activating its strategic aviation, represented by the Boeing B-52H Stratofortress, US Air Force, at the western borders of Russia. And so, on March 21, 2019, the Russian Ministry of Defense, noting the increased activity of the Americans, published a video escorting the next “strategist” of the United States, who “sneaked” over the neutral Baltic waters to the Russian border.
The Ministry of Defense noted that the aforementioned air target was detected in advance by Russian airspace controls. And at a considerable distance from the airspace of Russia was taken for escort.
It was specified from the military department that for clear identification and direct tracking of the target, a pair of Russian Su-27 fighters from the structure of the air defense forces on duty was lifted into the air. After that, the strategic bomber changed the flight path to the side of the state border of Russia, and the Russian all-weather and multi-purpose "drying" returned to their base airfield.
It should be noted that over the past five days, the American B-52H has repeatedly tried to approach the borders of Russia in the Baltic. These bombers are capable of carrying various nuclear weapons (bombs and cruise missiles).
