Russian Aircraft have been making more incursions into US airspace since Dec. 13 and Nov. 12, 2014, and Feb. 12, 2013.
In 2013, F-15s were scrambled to intercept the aircraft. Another time it was F-22s that were scrambled to greet the wandering Russians.
Back then, the planes were antiquated Tupolev Tu-95 bears, propeller driven bombers first developed in the early 1950’s.
Once when they were intercepted, Capt. Jeff Davis, a spokesman for the North American Aerospace Defense Command explained “They followed all the protocols, and it was a very professional encounter on both sides. There was nothing that they were doing that was contrary to international law.”
This past fourth of July, two more Tu-95s greeted United States pilots with a message according to the North American Aerospace Defense Command: “Good morning, American pilots. We are here to greet you on your Fourth of July Independence Day.”

If the story stopped at the coast of California this would have been believable, but then, with Hilllary’s reset button with Putin, who knows?
Must be some of that obama defense that’s so wonderful.
Get serious. This story is pure BS.
Wow, they made it to
Michigan
Guess the poster failed geography. California is no where near Wisconsin and Michigan.
This comment proves that you didn’t even read the article. You don’t know what it said so you can’t really comment on it credibly. Do you always do that?
That map is Lake Michigan I believe
Looks like the Russians are trying to find a way to win a nuclear war! 🙁 If this is any indication, they just might! 🙁
“it would be nice for the “most transparent administration in history” to inform the American people the Russians are peeking down on us.”
