Brutal shot, u.s warplane hit by hundred
missiles of Russian Su-27 jets as USAF
spying over black sea. Russian fighters Su-27 and Su-30 were
scrambled to escort u.s reconnaissance
aircraft over the black sea. no border breach was allowed.
The Russian
defense ministry's national defense
control center NDCC said on Friday, it is noted that on the 3rd of December
Russian airspace control detected
targets approaching the state border of
Russia over the neutral waters of the
black sea, to identify aerial targets and prevent
violation of the Russian state border Su-27 and Su-30 fighters were scrambled.
The crews of Russian fighters identified
aerial targets as the u.s air force
RC-135 strategic reconnaissance aircraft
and the Cl-600 reconnaissance and target
designation aircraft. Artemis of the u.s
ground forces and escorted them over the
black sea, the statement says.
After the foreign military aircraft
turned away from the state border the
Russian fighters safely returned to the
home airfield. The flights of Russian fighters were
carried out in accordance with
international rules for the use of

Russia said on Thursday it had scrambled
a fighter jet to intercept a British spy
plane operating near Crimea. the black
sea peninsula which Moscow annexed from
Ukraine in 2014.
russia's defense ministry said the
British foray was part of a wider uptick
in military activity by the united
states and its allies in the black sea
region. Something that President Vladimir
Putin complained about to german
chancellor angela Merkel in a phone call
on Thursday.
The ministry said it had scrambled a
Sukhoi Su-30 fighter jet to intercept a
British Boeing RC-135 reconnaissance
plane which it said had been trying to
get close to Crimea. It said the british plane had changed
course away from crimea after being
approached by the russian plane.
Putin told merkel by phone on thursday
that western actions in the black sea
region were destabilizing, dangerous, and
provocative, the kremlin said.
The defense ministry said in its
statement that the increased nato
activity involved two u.s warships, strategic aviation and four NATO spy
planes in the last 24 hours including
the british one. It said it looked like an attempt by
nato to scout out a potential theater of
war.
Something it said might come in
handy in the event that ukraine tried to
take back by force its eastern danbase
region which it lost control of to
russian-backed separatists in 2014. It said two russian warships were
tracking the US vessels.
British warship
HMS defender in june exercised what
london said were internationally
recognized freedom of navigation rules
in ukrainian territorial waters near
crimea drawing a fierce response from
Moscow. Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine in
2014 and says the waters around it
belonged to Moscow now despite most
countries continuing to recognize the
peninsula as Ukrainian.
