VVS Tu-160 Blackjack
RAF Tornado F.3
The Russian VVS are at it again: Sending strategic bombers toward airspace of NATO countries - resuming the Cold War?

The Russians see Communism on the rise in the West, and feel threatened!;)
A little late when the bomber is over your country...
Wish we had a President who would go toe to toe with the Rooskies instead of being a little punk.........
The British sub school is in Scotland IIRC. Makes sense for a fly over.
“Wing Commander Mark Gorringe applauded the response capabilities of the military in regards to the incident.”
Umm... Just out of curiosity, how is it that these bombers made into Scottish airspace in the first place. The goal of interception is to intercept before they bust your airspace. The Wing Commander’s applause not withstanding, it was always my understanding that if they made it over your territory without being intercepted prior, the Tornado Team was probably a little late to the party. Maybe I’m missing something here, but there have been investigations for less than this flu, to my way of thinking.
Wow.
...two Russian Blackjack bombers were found in the skies above Scotland and were escorted out of British airspace.Thanks myknowledge.
