Russian fighter jets flew within 20 feet of RAF plane

[Blackleaf]

This is the moment two Russian fighter jest flew within 20ft (6 metres) of an unarmed RAF plane.

Two Russian fighters seemed determined to spark a major conflict between Britain and Russia as they came seriously close to the unarmed RAF Rivet Joint spy plane over the Black Sea in international airspace.

The two Russian fighters were filmed from onboard the British Rivet Joint plane.

It will never be known if the two crappy Russian fighter jets would have attempted to get close to the RAF Rivet Joint had it been accompanied by RAF Typhoon fighter jets.

The Russian bear keeps poking the sleeping British lion...

Why would the alarmed farces take an unarmed plane on a spy mission?

Why would the alarmed farces take an unarmed plane on a spy mission?

Because fighters have a limited cargo capacity, and weapons are cargo. So are electronic intercept devices.

Just say it uses less gas.
