Cire 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) The images from Britain's Ministry of Defence show an encounter outside British airspace last Friday between the Royal Air Force's (RAF) new Typhoon F2 aircraft and one of several Russian Bear-H bombers. The incident comes as Moscow seeks to raise its military profile. The encounter happened on the same day that Vladimir Putin, president of Russia, announced it was to resume the Soviet-era practice of continuous long-range bomber patrols on a permanent basis. http://edition.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/europe/08/22/bomber.patrol/index.html Edited April 24, 2014 by Cire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
