Pentagon: American aircraft "was intercepted by the Russian Su-27 in an unsafe manner"

January 29 2016 248

The US Department of Defense reported yesterday about the dangerous approach of the Russian fighter to the American reconnaissance aircraft, flying over the Black Sea, reports RIA News.

The incident, according to a spokesman for the ministry, Michel Baldans, occurred on Monday 25 in January.

“The US aircraft RC-135U, which made an ordinary flight in the international airspace over the Black Sea, was intercepted by the Russian Su-27 in an unsafe and unprofessional manner. We are studying this incident ",

she said.

“The Russian Su-27 flew near an American electronic intelligence aircraft, and then made a dangerous turn and went away. The distance was so close that as a result of the jolt from the jet fighter jet, the RC-135 lost controllability, ”the Washington Free Beacon said, citing a source.

According to the publication, "the incident occurred in 30 miles from the coast in international airspace and away from any Russian territory."

Recall that earlier the US and Russian military agreed mutual security measures during flights in Syria. At the same time, the Pentagon then noted that these measures concern only the situation in Syria and do not apply to other regions.

Holy shit... In an unprofessional manner... How are they going to fight with us? After every plane we shoot down, will they move a note of protest and file a lawsuit?

I wonder if there was a personal psychologist in the cockpit and how he calmed down the pilot? Well, earthy navels, well, show offs. How are they going to fight us? After all, we will not only beat them, but... we will also. Not scary?

"A US RC-135U aircraft on a routine flight in international airspace over the Black Sea was intercepted by a Russian Su-27 in an unsafe and unprofessional manner."

Amers have strange ideas about the professionalism of military pilots. Apparently, their pilots are trained entirely in simulators. They definitely won’t go for a ram.

It was necessary to force them to land on Kach. Cheat around. Then, if anything happens, apologize. This is what the USSR did under Stalin.

And that, without the permission of our Aerospace Forces, he allowed himself such freedom in OUR Black Sea? - An outrageous trick!

Intercepting in a safe manner - it seems to me that this is a hack for our pilots. It's much cooler to intercept like an adult!

Six meters, not weak ... and highly professional.

And most importantly: the American lost control, and Russian pilots are accused of unprofessionalism!

I don’t want to scrimp, but I really want to see the “heroism” of pen.do.sov in an “unsafe” war. It is not for them to bomb peaceful cities.

Pisyunki. And who will they complain to during the war? I imagine a summary of future military operations from the United States:
- The Russians attacked us rudely and not according to the rules, and we did everything we could!

The distance was so close that, as a result of the push from the fighter jet, the RC-135 lost control "

Yeah, and also losing consciousness and dumping ballast into your pants to gain altitude.

Let me clarify. The Russian plane was 30 km from the coast, and it was its own. How far is it to the American coast? That's what a vegetable he was scattering here, and even expressing grievances. These, God forgive me, need to be driven into your hole from all over the world, and this needs to be done by all available means. And the plane... well, the technicians will wash it of manure and it will fly again.

Now the crew of the American plane has been decommissioned at the request of psychologists. Ds. Deep psychological trauma incompatible with flying.

How close to the US borders did this happen? I know geography quite well, but I don’t “remember” that the Black Sea washed the shores of the United States. or at least “was located close to the United States.” But this sea washes the shores of Russia, and even the farthest “corner” of this sea is not at all “far” from our country. Was the American plane “completely peaceful”? Did you deliver humanitarian aid to the poor? No? Intelligence? If you don't want incidents, don't fly near our borders!!!

That's why he intercepts, to be tough. And not only in the air, but also at sea near the borders of Russia. As for professionalism, it consists in demoralizing the enemy before using weapons.
Let them stock up on diapers, they will come in handy.

Real story.
Yesterday I arrived from a country in Asia. There are only two people in duty free: me and the pilot of the flight on which I am supposed to fly. Both took 2 liters of whiskey. No one else ! Good drink. Steering wheel towards you, turn, turn again. Only I slept the entire flight.
