Winchester, VA – Fox News is reporting that a short while ago, an armed Russian fighter jet flew within five feet of a United States Air Force RC-135 reconnaissance jet over the Baltic Sea. The Russian Su-27 flew toward the American aircraft “rapidly,” and as one official put it, “erratically” and its behavior was “provocative.” Although there have been dozens of U.S./Russia encounters over the Baltic Sea, this one was notable due to the level of danger posed by the proximity of the Russian aircraft. This action comes a day after the Russian Defense Ministry threatened any American aircraft which it detected flying west of the Euphrates.
