The Americans praised the successful interception of Su-30 aircraft over the Baltic

81
The US Air Force published footage of the interception of Russian Su-30 fighters in the sky over the Baltic Sea. It was noted that the F-15 aircraft were raised to intercept due to the fact that "Russian pilots did not give the necessary signals and did not provide flight plans to NATO."

It is reported that we are talking about "incidents" that occurred in November and December 2017. It is noted that the fighters of the US Air Force, rising into the air, are assigned to the air base of Leukenhit (Lakenheath, Britain). This air base was founded in Suffolk, England in 1941. At the airbase stationed aircraft 48-th fighter wing of the US Air Force, known as the "Wing of the Statue of Liberty."



In the interception of Su-30 aircraft participated aircraft 493 th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron.

The US military command said that the F-15 pilots "acted as correctly and professionally as possible."

The Americans praised the successful interception of Su-30 aircraft over the Baltic


From the statement of the US Air Force Command:
The US Air Force pilots escorted Su-30 aircraft in accordance with all international safety standards.

It is noted that since January 2018, the “baton” of patrolling the airspace of the Baltic States and the sky over the Baltic Sea has been handed over to the Royal Danish Air Force.

      Really. The route to Kaliningrad is known. The flights of new aircraft to the base from the factory themselves are known and controlled. You can "intercept"

        '' And most of all it is “ordinary” in that this, so to speak, “interception”, is already “usually” impersonated as a “HEROIC ACTION”. The interception is considered heroic and successful if, after landing, the pilot’s diaper - the “interceptor” remained dry.

          You and the American taxpayers were once again reminded that the States are occupying the USSR, take off from its USSR airfields, located minutes away from Leningrad and Moscow, and may even block the artery. How to relate to this is an interesting question, but still alive are those who took off from these airfields, what do they feel ?.

        What kind of nafig interception. Mlyn interceptors are unfinished. Well, a pair of Su flew and that. They flew nearby and flew away. But the gundos in the video blundered that they were there for themselves. As in a joke about a man whose wife’s lover in the kitchen drew a damn thing and said what will kill if he marries her. And himself with his wife in the bedroom.
        And after a while from the kitchen a man’s laugh. A lover in the kitchen.

          “During the flight, NATO F-15 aircraft approached a safe distance from Russian fighters, after which they changed course and left,” added the Defense Ministry.

    In the exercises with the Indian Air Force, the F-15 did not win a single training battle against the Su-30 ... They intercepted ... Ha ha

    The US Air Force pilots escorted Su-30 aircraft in accordance with all international safety standards.

    What inflated it ???? Standard practice of yo-mai.

    I watched this video, there were several interesting moments, as the F15 leaves the hangar and a bunch of journalists are already rubbing and taking photos of this mega event, and how our Su30 again drives the Pin_Dosovsky plane away from the partner, coming in behind and turning on the aerodynamic brake.

    And what do they brag about? The fact that they found the Su-30 in neutral waters? So this is the usual and routine work of escorting foreign aircraft in the border zone, our pilots do this every day and no one brags about it. Again, the journalists found a sensation out of the blue, probably for them this is news that deserves attention.

    why not? Simple practice. Americans are not inferior in flying skills and their planes are quite on the level. Your intercept NATO, they are yours.

    And you do not mind that this happened over the Baltic Sea, and not over the Gulf of Mexico ??? Personally, I do not like it ....

    Over the Baltic Sea, this happened almost every day under the USSR, so it does not bother.

    And there is also a practice of “giveaway”: which radar station has detected, frequencies, air defense communications, time from detection to interception, the operation of the airfield, which airplanes are sent to “intercept”, and so on. The following “intercepts” will be checked at very low altitudes, then in the stratosphere, then we will check the Su-57 ... And the enemies act in the same way. And why should the defendants be included if reconnaissance of radio equipment and air defense support is in progress. Those. when planning a real combat operation, all the data for a successful electronic warfare, counteraction to enemy aircraft, etc. will be taken into account.

    Intercepted called! They flew nearby, and rang out to the whole world that they had almost shot down our planes. Trepachi! They wind up their image! stop

    Well, the smug cowboys shot a video, as they honorably escorted the “Russian bears” in the distance and a little behind request it feels like they didn't even notice them. AND, fellow now they need to apply for an Oscar ...

    it is quite commendable that they (NATO) were really allowed to “intercept”, but under other “circumstances” the Yankees hardly succeeded, and this is not bravado, and the reality in NATO also knows about it ...
