    I have no doubt that the Black Sea Fleet also worked out a strike on two B-1B Lancer bombers, fighters of the Air Forces of Romania, Poland and Canada, as well as on two KC-135 air tankers.

      In case of war, both B-1B Lancers would go to the bottom of the Black Sea.

      The air defense of the Southern Military District conducted training on real targets ... Amerov did not even need to be asked to pose for the detection equipment.
      And NATO also miscalculated that the training would take place in combat mode, using wartime frequencies .. Ha-Ha ... The bombers won't reach the launch lines

        Do strategic bombers need to cross the state border to strike? I doubt they were planning to cross the border. But our reaction was closely watched by the whole team ...
        In short, everyone trained.

          Everyone practiced, but in my city there are warehouses of the State Reserve and since the 90s no one has been working on the railway line leading to them, overgrown with mud, grass, thrown with "bulls" and fragments of bottles, and last week on this branch they changed the canvas , poured ballast, and put new rails on reinforced concrete sleepers.

    First and foremost, ours did not hooligans during refueling. So we observe some agreements. Ours also fly around the corner with refueling. But this is until the first case. The red phone will be red-hot, if anything. And I slept so bad. must be always on?

      The range of the latest 158 ​​versions is 900 km, you can shoot without entering the Black Sea at our bases in the Crimea. True, it is subsonic, part of it will not fly through the air defense. But. A dangerous weapon in the service of unscrupulous marshworms.

    Is it necessary to cross the border to strike at the grouping of ships in the exercise? I do not envy the military, you train, study, you do not sleep at night, but everything is in vain, there is no war.

    "Worked out" the strike on the naval grouping of the Russian Navy
    Having received "satisfaction" and having seen the Russian planes, they decided to retreat. Attempts by the Americans to constantly keep Russia in suspense and juggle provocations (sea-air-land) may one day end in disaster. While working out their tasks, they give our air defense and aerospace forces the opportunity to work out their own.

    From 1953 to 1983 (for 30 years) at least 40 cases of mutual use of weapons of the USSR and NATO air forces were recorded. At the same time, the USSR lost 10 aircraft, NATO countries - 27 aircraft and helicopters and 130 crew members. NATO members lost more, as they more often violated the borders of the USSR. There were also cases of rams. One of them occurred on 24.08.1973/4/XNUMX, the US reconnaissance aircraft RF-XNUMXC entered the airspace of the USSR from Iran.
    The MiG-21 pilot who intercepted, having used up all the ammunition, went to the ram. The crew of the RF-4 С, left the plane by parachute, they were captured by the Soviet border guards.
    The pilot of the MiG-21, Gennady Yeleseev was killed. He was named after the Hero of the Soviet Union, posthumously.

    F-4 was Iranian, not NATO.
    There was another episode when two Iranian F-4s flew in by mistake. Were fired at from the Su-9, but went back. Although, by mistake, our Tu-22 also flew into Iran.

    The 158 has some kind of heat direction finder. But not the point. If there are no Harpoons on the B-1, then the fleet can not be afraid of them on the march.? Well, they will not bomb the squadron with bombs.

    Well, so what? Our sworn "partners" are getting ready for the new Drang nach Osten and already in its hot phase, as the cold one is going on. Once again, the Crusaders can't wait to try their luck. Once again, the hegemon gathers a new flock ("all progressive humanity") to punish the "Russian barbarians" again for refusing to kneel down and accept their "values". So the battle promises to be serious! .......
