Yeah, I saw it. Nice site, nice photos.

Today they flew with 2 Tu-160 Blackjacks. There really sin't much more to it, I can't think of how the new agencies make a full story out of this small bit of new info.  ;D

It's a throw back story mainly I never saw it on any main stream news in the United States.   Military types, aviation fans,  and older age group say from 40 to 60 who can still remember the USSR catches their attention a little.   It will fad did you read today that France might sell radar's and missiles to Pakistan?

No, but it wouldn't surprise me after all the weapondry India has bought lately. India should be working on a new missile with Israel. I think it was some sort of a mid range SAM, but I might be mistaking.

Huh. They're looking for attention. Maybe it's a recon stunt. Like that German photography plane incident where Stalin said "I don't believe it, & c."

Maybe they're planning a war up there.  >:D >:D >:D
