Russia does this all the time, why is it news all of a sudden?

[danemmerich]

They play games in the air all the time.

[doZerBoy]

Pretty sure the Russian jets were actually accompanying another aircraft of theirs and the US pilots wanted to take closer look so the Russians gave it to them. Could be wrong...fact check it

[murgerowitz]

And just like that, we’ve got a lock.

[Rocky-rhrz]

Why was the F-16 tailing a Russian surveillance plane in the first place?

So.. F-16 gets too close to Russian surveillance plane → Russian escort cuts off F-16.

The way I see it.. these Russian/US militaries are acting like kids, then whining about it. 🤷 _My opinion is my opinion.._

[jflee]

"Unprofessional" I seriously doubt they are acting like American politicians. 😂

[jensprielipp]

That's the difference between "ability" and "show"...

[outlawbillionairez]

Question..is the location of incident on Russia's doorstep, or 5, 200 miles from Washington DC?
(Answer is "Yes")

[DavidKat-nxfk]

🤣🤣🤣🤣, Russia is near Alaska, 20 miles

[Warlock-Pariah]

That flanker was trying to use that F16 for cover after spotting a pair of F22 raptors closing in fast.

[ryanbernier]

Alright, people, there were 4 F22s about 5 miles back. Nobody was worried

[BLSPACHAPTER]

This has been occurring for over three decades we fly past them they fly past us big deal

[ianreshef]

Con razón los festivales aéreos con presencia rusa eran desastres

[denisekoltys]

“Too close for rockets. Use pew pews!!”

[DonaldDouglasJr]

If they have radar and knew it was coming, why didn't he evade or do something

[michaelpease]

The Russian fighter jet is a Sukhoi Su-30, a two seat version of the Su-27. My source reports he said "come get me cupcake" over the radio. My source is a jug of milk in my fridge.

[cruz]

Why did he let him pass so close I thought they had radr equip fighters

[Ange]

How about the US aircraft was too close to Russia? People need to see what's REALLY going on in the world!

[jetblack]

The Russian fighter pass on the left side. What's the big deal?.

[skyliner]

Unprofessional?? 😂this war is unprofessional lol people are going to do whatever it takes to distract people that jet was only showing his belly that's all just saying he's friendly 😂
