It was only a post B17. Not an accusation nor a critique. Lighten up, dude.

Well since most of Eastern Europe is part of NATO its a very serious pain in the ass for Russia, especially with U.S. bases so close to them.I believe we have one or 2 bases here, I know for sure they where but I'm not sure if they still are...

Yes we have opened several training bases in Romania now.

I'm very happy with those bases...maybe now since we are part of European Union the idiots in charge will fund the army properly because its a complete wreck...

russia is just trying some crap, hell if you said china , i would get scared, but you figured they did that because of the kosovo independence, but the russians are just hot air, putian needs too be punted in the grion,

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

They are not doing this because of Kosovo. They have been doing this again for about the last 4 to 6 months now.

such low passes can be really dangerous both for the airplane and for carrier:

What is the VO saying?

It doesnt look like it hit the carrier

 

[Matt308]

Lots of splices. Who knows what that was.

The narrator says the plane hit the water while turning left at the very low height

I've seen that before; there's a website dedicated to the Cold War interceptions but I can't remember the address. I'll try to find it; quite a site.

 

[Milos Sijacki]

Anybody here knows russian? I think it talks about spetznaz halfway through it, and it doesn't make sense...

Either the Russians are trying to intimidate us or they are spying.

My dad has told me stories about his time on the USS Ranger working the flight deck during Veitnam, I think 68-72 was when he was in the service. He has told me they had several flyovers by Russian birds. He says that they were alarming at first, but soon became so common place that everyone on the flight deck started waving to the Russians as they flew over, and basically paid them very little attention. The Russians were always escorted by F4s.

Nice of NATO to tell them where their cargo ship was.
