[quote]Colonel Steven Warren, a Pentagon spokesman, said: "On April 12, a Russian Su-24 made numerous close-range, low-altitude passes in the vicinity of the USS Donald Cook, while the Cook was conducting operations in international waters in the western Black Sea.
"The aircraft did not respond to multiple queries and warnings from Donald Cook. The event ended without incident after approximately 90 minutes."[/quote]
Ok very funny Russia, however this means we get to buzz the Kremlin with a B-52 ok?
Fair right?
Edit: Guys I was kidding about the B-52 over the Kremlin, I am being sarcastic -_-
-
Could've easily been privately owned or even a different militaries plane.
-
Isnt the Su-24 an old as plane, how do they kno it wasn't privately owned
-
Why are the Russians flying their contraptions near our ships? Let's buzz them with a couple F-15s and F-18s, now those are real jets.
-
Yes, let's make things worse :D Seriously, if Russia wants to swing it's military dick around let them look like idiots. Rising to the bait is what they want.

Big difference between flying some crappy ground attack aircraft at a Destroyer, and flying a strategic bomber over the head of Government..
-
Go Putin! Flex Russia's flabby muscles.

International waters. The jets can do what they want as long as they don't attack.
