The US Navy's P-8A Poseidon anti-submarine patrol aircraft on Monday made a multi-hour reconnaissance flight off the coast of Crimea and Krasnodar Territory, according to the western aviation resources.

According to their information, the naval reconnaissance aircraft with a tail number 168432 and callsign PS156, departing from Sigonella airbase in Sicily, first made an approach to the coast of Krasnodar Region and cruised around Novorossiysk and Anapa.



The US Navy held reconnaissance near the Crimea


Then, flying in the opposite direction along the entire southern coast of Crimea, the American naval intelligence officer circled for a long time to the west of Sevastopol, occasionally approaching him at a distance of approximately 40 km. After that, he continued his flight over the Black Sea near the western tip of the peninsula.

At the same time, when flying near the Russian coast, the Poseidon dropped to 8 thousand meters.

After departure from the air base in Sicily, the flight route of the sea intelligence officer to the Russian shores on the Black Sea lay over Greece and Bulgaria.

Recall, January 7 American aircraft P-8A Poseidon has conducted reconnaissance off the coast of the Crimea, reports Interfax.

          The aircraft carrier will not enter the Black Sea! The USA did not need Ukraine, but the Crimea was needed, which would allow it to control the South of Russia and all the trade and economic routes of the Black Sea region, the entire Black Sea region and watch over Turkey and other allies from Eastern Europe! Moreover, stationary! So there you go! hi

              To include Ukraine in NATO without entering into direct confrontation with a nuclear power is very problematic, but to deploy a military base, there are no special problems! Now, the United States is trying to keep Ukraine in the sphere of its interests, but without the Crimea, it does not represent such a strategic interest as with the Crimea - only more hemorrhoids!

          Captain, an aircraft carrier in the Black Sea is just a target. And the Turks will not let him through the straits. Not without reason, after ours demonstrated "Caliber" in Syria, aircraft carriers got out of the Persian Gulf ...

          Are you sure that nobody accompanied this Poseidon? You can accompany in different ways. Either pick up the interceptors, or they will keep the air defense systems in sight, or both.

    Everything, as in the good Soviet times - their intelligence at our borders was wiped off. In the 90s, when they "made friends" with us in full, these devils did not hesitate to fly such equipment over our territory, with complete impunity, within the framework of "peace agreements."

    And why didn’t we intercept him, near the Crimea? Why is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs silent about unsafe flights in an area with heavy air traffic?

      and where did you get the idea that you should tell EVERYTHING? and where did you get that he flew in an area with heavy air traffic? at civilian sides their corridors and the military do not go there. and in our Foreign Ministry there are no alarmists. since there was no reaction, then there was no violation of the border. ours are flying near their borders and nothing. on the next branch I discuss the flight of TU-160
