Because of Russia or Syria? The United States transferred two strategists B-52H to Europe

The United States transferred to Europe strategic bombers capable of carrying nuclear weapon. Two US strategists B-52H after a transatlantic flight on Wednesday landed at the Fairford airbase in England, Western aviation resources with reference to monitoring data.

Strategic bombers B-52H with on-board numbers 60-0057 and 60-0015, according to air resources, flew from the US air base Barksdale in Louisiana and, having made a transatlantic flight, landed on British territory. There is currently no information on the purpose for which American bombers are deployed. B-52H are capable of carrying long-range cruise missiles.

It is possible that the reason for the transfer of American strategists to Europe is the holding by Russia of large-scale international exercises "Vostok-2018". Last year, the US Air Force command also threw two strategic bombers B-52H from the American base Barksdale to British Fairford for the duration of the joint Russian-Belarusian exercise Zapad-2017.

Another reason for the deployment of B-52H in Europe may be the alleged US launching of missile strikes on Syria, in which, along with surface and submarine carriers of Tomahawk missiles, strategic bombers can take part.

Well, we are chasing our strategists, our Americans are chasing, what’s the news, they are learning to bomb us, we are learning to bomb them, a normal civilized life is going on.

If you are talking about our TU-160 in Venezuela in 2008, then that was a long time ago and not true. True, we warned in advance that for exercises.

[NIKN]

It's just scary. We are not afraid of this and do not drive strategists. In general, theirs, that ours is not chased, they will carry out the task from their bases, and that’s what the strategists are doing.

[Ros 56]

And what can two aircraft, especially in small Britain ?. May is enough for moral support, no more.

[novel66]

the genetic memory worked - they flew by like that, and as they remembered the Second World War - immediately to the landing. maybe Dresden will be bombed?

[Iline]

Yes, this is an ordinary American air base, we were there in the 94th year. And the B-52 is constantly present there.
Only sometimes rotation of aircraft and crews from different air bases is carried out.
The usual routine, why wave your hands out of the blue?

From a distance than a bullet, they can .... the same gangsters as their wards, except perhaps more and richer.
After all, you won’t change the inside, but there is no one to give the shortcut so far.

[Ros 56]

It’s like no one, as soon as they appeared within the scope of the air defense, they were immediately pointed at what was supposed to be in the state.

[rocket757]

These are carriers of long-range cruise missiles! There is no need to go into the covered air defense zone!

As I understand it, the Rocket 757 was meant to bring down a plane, and not just go over it.

[rocket757]

At the distance from which the carrier bomber can launch a rocket, it cannot be reached by the most long-range anti-aircraft missile, only a fighter, interceptor or station wagon.
But he will not fly into the interception zone of air defense, too big - the radar visible by all, too slow.
And then sho see him from afar, all in a row long-range radar, this is garbage, the rocket detached and went on its routes, and this flying miracle turned around and house!

[sabakina]

All the same, it’s interesting, our exercises in the east, bombers landed in the west ... It would be more logical to place them in South Korea. Let's see where these planes will subsequently surface.

[Black sniper]

For "them," the exercises of the Russian Navy in the Mediterranean Sea are directly related to the situation in Syria more relevant!

I agree. Learning always takes place. And in this case, the crews will master the European theater

Meaning? Okay, their "tomahawks" are regularly upgraded, they are bought in sufficient quantities. But the B-52 does not carry Tomahawks, but the AGM-86. Their total number has already decreased compared to 10-20 years earlier. And using it to carry free-fall in Syria is stupid. You can substitute under the rocket ...

[tlauicol]

maybe they sensed a hole in the line - a lot of ours went to Syria

[sabakina]

Uh-huh. Half of the Armed Forces are in Syria, the other half of the Armed Forces left for the Vostok exercise. Come and take us with your bare hands.

[san4es]

It is possible that the reason for the transfer of American strategists to Europe is Russia's large-scale Vostok-2018 international exercises.

... They fly there every year ... They parachute.

Three B-52 bombers from Minot Air Force base land at Fairford airbase .... Jun 8. 2016 year

The USA transferred two V-52N strategists to Europe

I propose to transfer everything that remains of the MiG-19 ...
