They were no longer required. Only the Germans could match up with the Russian tank force.This one?The problem is that the F-22 get surprised. How is that possible?You mist sign up. But the title is enough:
"Russian Fighters Test U.S. Boundaries In Skies Over Syria"
I have read the article, bullwinkle. And it just means the Russians are doing what they always do even in Alaska. This is a cat and mouse game and has been going on since the 1950s for both sides. The start to enter, we respond in kind. Both sides stare each other waiting for the other blink. And then the bird that is being intrusive heads back into it's own area. Nothing new here. Nothing to see, nothing to report.
Just a bit of information from Experience. I was onboard a C-130D that just came off the Cap. This was before the Nav Sats were available. When you enter into the Caps, your instrumentation gets all squirrely. You have to come out of it, check your position and then get back on your side of the line. Temporary, we had a Mig-25 escort. He flew in, stated that we were going to do a complete 180 and exit the airspace. He stayed on our wingtip (slightly trailing) until F-4s out of Elmendorf got there and he peeled off and went home. He was not courteous and just stated the facts. Of course, his finger was hovering over the launch button at the time.
The SU ANYTHING
Not much difference. This was not carried forward after WWII ended.
