Russian fighter makes ‘unsafe’ interception of U.S. Navy plane over Black Sea


(Worthy News) – A Russian fighter jet flew within 50 feet of an American reconnaissance plane in an “unsafe” maneuver that caused “violent turbulence” for the U.S. aircraft, the military said late Monday.

The Russian Sukhoi Su-30 intercepted the P-8A Poseidon while it was flying in international airspace over the Black Sea Saturday, United States European Command said in a statement.

It crossed in front of the U.S. plane from left to right while using its afterburners, the statement said, adding the aircraft were so close that the American patrol plane crossed through the Russian fighter’s jet wash. [ Source: NBC News (Read More…) ]
