Pentagon Releases Video of Russian Aerospace Forces Living Their Best Life

Pentagon (North American Aerospace Defense Command — NORAD), released the video captured by one of their fighters when it was sent to intercept a Russian Tu-95 last week:

NORAD complains the Russian Su-35 which nearly gave the US pilot a heart stroke, flew in a “unsafe, unprofessional” manner, which is American for “super cool and badass”.

CBS:

Those aircraft were spotted just days after about 130 U.S. soldiers were temporarily deployed to a remote Alaska island with mobile rocket launchers amid a spike in Russian military activity off the western reaches of the U.S.”

“The deployment coincided with eight Russian military planes and four navy vessels, including two submarines, traveling close to Alaska as Russia and China conducted joint military drills. None of the planes breached U.S. airspace.

Alaska was transferred by Russia to the US in return for $7.2 million in 1867, because Russia concluded that in a future war the territory would be easily captured and annexed by a hostile Great Britain (fought a war 1853-56, threatened war 1878), the naval world hegemon of the time.
