U.S. fighter jets intercept Russian warplanes off the coast of Alaska

How you say..."just checking!!!" in Russian?

Good job guys.


I gotta give style points to that bomber tho.

That bomber is 70 years old. Probably lost,always happens.

who cares?

You could either say prosto proveryayu or prosto smotryu (just looking).

Pozhaluysta.

The Russians like to come by, knock on the door, make sure someone is home and the alarm systems are working.

No worries.

borrrrrrrring.

Fire an air to air or dont report it. ask yourself what did the 60s,70s.80s90s get us? The USSR went bankrupt and the USA took out more loans. Dumb fucks both of them.

so shoot a missile ~
otherwise its this, and meaningless: cut to 225

Fleet of US B-2’s and F-22’s overfly Moscow and no one notices.

Our boys and girls at J-BER flying top cover for America.....SAAALUUUTE!

They do this shit a few times every year, got to get those flight hours somehow so might as well scramble some Yanks while they're at it.

meh

Worth a read, by legendary USAF test pilot and Academy instructor Col Everest E Riccioni, concerning the reality of the F22: THE USAF F–22 RAPTOR PROGRAM: A NATIONAL TRAGEDY — MILITARY AND ECONOMIC [link to www.pogoarchives.org]

Some takeaways that prove the F-22 is junk:

"Some claim that the Raptor has the signature of a bird. True, but only in the forward quarter, co altitude, and only to enemy fighter radars. It is quite visible to ground based radars."

"Due to its very large 26 percent gain in weight, the Raptor has a very ordinary thrust-to-weight ratio and wing loading, comparable to the F–15C. Hence, its maneuverability, acceleration, and rate of climb are comparable to the performance of the F–15C — for reasons of basic physics.

This was corroborated by a Lockheed test pilot who allowed that the F–22 essentially had the air battle performance of the F–15C and the F–16 with the largest GE engine. Since this is physics, his corroboration is unnecessary, but at least he told The Truth! Remarkable to say the least."

Col. Riccioni's brutal honesty about the Raptor earned him the wrath of many with vested interests, but he has been proved 100 percent correct. Just a couple of facts that prove the USAF has given up on the Raptor:

The long awaited off-boresight AIM-9X missile took a decade to appear on the airplane in 2015, but the helmet-mounted sight that is essential to this kind of air to air weapon is still nowhere in sight. The Russians have had this for 30 years. It allows the pilot to fire a missile at an aircraft off to his side rather than in front if him. The helmet sight allows aiming just by pointing your head at the target. The plan to equip the Raptor with an IRST [infrared search and track] has been shelved altogether. IRST is considered essential on a modern fighter aircraft, since it allows the pilot to turn off his onboard radar [the main way for an enemy to find you is by your radar emissions], and track enemy aircraft by the heat signature coming out if his engine. There was a much publicized incident a few years ago when a Russian Su35 tracked and photographed a Raptor over Syria with its IRST.

The Raptor availability rate has only reached about 60 percent, a dismal figure for a front line fighter. The F22 requires about 50 hours of maintenance for each flight hour; per hour operating cost is about $70,000, which works out to a whopping half a billion dollars over the airplane's 8,000 hour service life.

In short, like just about everything in the US today, the narrative about weapons capability is rooted firmly in fantasy. It's all a facade, a Potemkin village, which is why military action against Venezuela has been shelved: with their S300s and Su30 jets, the Bolivarists can do some damage; the downing of a US F22 would be catastrophic, and might send big spenders like KSA scurrying over to Rosboronexport.

I wonder why they didn't take the tunnel, or maybe they were doing some kind of checking up on the tunnel underneath the Bering Strait:

Here is the BBC Documentary that lays out the plans they have had to build tunnel:

But, shhhhh! Nobody is supposed to talk about this train tunnel from Russia to Alaska, then down the Yukon, to meet up with California's future train system.

That bomber is at least 26 years old and is outdated soviet era junk. Suprising what a fresh coat of paint will do.

That is the biggest load of shit I have ever read.

F-22 is the best pound for pound Fighter in the World.

As for Russian air defenses………..seriously Dude you have to be taking the piss.

In Syria they have been an un-mitigating disaster. They have shot down nothing of note, other than a Russian Plane with 14 on board because the system was so retarded it had no “Friend or Foe” feature.

IAF simply overwhelm Russian air defenses with Drones prior to real attacks.

US had both S200/S300 system transferred to United States from Ukraine/Georgia for back engineering.

US knows all there is to know about Russia junk air defenses. Hence why Israel has been so successful killing Iranians in Syria.

F-22 is the best pound for pound Fighter in the World.

BWAHAHAHA

The YF 23 should have taken that spot.

Politics dictated otherwise.

The F 35 is now in play.

They do this all the time and vice versa. You can watch some funny Air Force pilot interviews of what goes on when the see each other from the cockpits... They usually flip each other the bird or something, I remember one pilot saying how a Russian pilot held up the centerfold from a Playboy to the window.

"The Russian bombers and fighters remained in international airspace and at no time did the aircraft enter United States or Canadian sovereign airspace," the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) said in a statement.

Routine training mission.

So, nothing really.

:ohlook:

Freedom of navigation and aviation in international waters or airspace.

if a f35 was there all those russki bombers would of been shot down!!!

i don't believe a word those bullshitters say .
in fact i believe the opposite which usually proves to be true .
we see the lies daily , just because it involves military does not imply truth , everything americans hear regarding military is a lie .

Russia snatched Syria and Crimea away from Uncle Zog. It could easily snatch Alaska.

A Syrian S300 manned by inexperienced Syrians shot down the Russians, only after the Israelis engaged in cowardly tactics hiding behind the plane. Bibi had to make several trips to Moscow begging Putin's forgiveness until the Russians decided to let that one slide. Next time, though, you can be sure that the Israelis will be shot down by the actual Russian-manned, S-400 missile batteries at Hmeimim if they again engage in such cowardly, cheap tactics.

Now, back to the F22. You are telling me you know better than Col. Everest E Riccioni? LOL!
