Strategist B-52H United States Air Force found again at the borders of the Kaliningrad region




American bomber Boeing B-52H Stratofortress with a tail number 60-0024 took off from Fairford air base in 11: 45. In 13: 20, he approached the borders of the Kaliningrad region and, without entering Russian airspace, worked off a conventional attack on the base of the Baltic Fleet from a height of eight thousand meters.

This is not the first appearance in the past week of American strategic bombers at the western borders of Russia. The first time B-52H appeared in the region of the Kaliningrad region 14 in March, when having made a trans-Atlantic flight to the coast of Europe and passing near Scotland, headed for German airspace to the Baltic. Above the Baltic Sea, a bomber traveled along the Polish coast towards the sea border of the Kaliningrad region, approaching it at 100 km.

On Friday 15 in March, the B-52H US Air Force carried out maneuvers near the Russian border in the Baltic region. He flew along the Polish border and approached the Kaliningrad region. The flight was carried out at an altitude of about 8 thousand meters.

March 18 The B-52H Stratofortress flew for over one and a half hours at the borders of Russia in the Kaliningrad and Leningrad regions. Taking off from the British Fairford base, he headed for the Kaliningrad region, then proceeded to Estonian airspace and cruised more than an hour and a half near the Leningrad region. Stratofortress approached the sea and land borders of the region by a distance of 35 and 95 kilometers, respectively.

The Boeing B-52H Stratofortress is a strategic bomber in service with the US Air Force since 1955. The aircraft is able to carry different types weaponsincluding nuclear.

        More than sure, he was spotted long before he reached our borders. And there surely, the launches worked as expected .. smile
        In general, our air defense systems are provoked for operational work. See, so far unsuccessfully, if the 4 time arrived ... smile

                Back in the spring of the 18th, the Angel Park-Hotel, behind Chernyakhovsky, at the confluence of the Instruch and Angrapa. Su-24 came out of the forest, so low that the tops were shaking. belay
                Yesterday, by the way, they also went low. A pair of Su-24 tail went into the tail. Before that, I only saw this on TV. good

    Someday these "games" may end badly. For example, as recently it was, instead of a training launch, it will perform a real one, ours will “take offense” and drop it, and then “drop” Omeriga.

    Our team noted above Cook, a group approach to the target (a Swedish lighthouse, it seems), they also practiced something "on cats". So why are we surprised that the response has arrived?

    such vehicles, more precisely of this class, will not be used even by ammunition planners; there the crew is the most expensive, purely on the faint of heart and identifying air defense and communications equipment

    That's the pike, so that the crucian would not doze off. Well, such a fool flew, so what? There he was only blindly deaf and dumb not to notice. It was launched only to play on the nerves. He flew all right, the signatures were compared half a century ago, recorded, and that’s all. The time will come in handy.

    How did you notice that you completed a training attack?
    His entire attack did not reach the borders of Russia for a couple of thousand kilometers and dump a couple of dozen Tomahawks. Turn around and fly back.
    Our Tu-95s fly along their borders, they are along our routine.
