To reassure the governments and populations of NATO\u2019s most vulnerable member states. To demonstrate to Russia the United States\u2019 clear intention to defend its allies.<\/p>\n<p>And, more subtly, to lure Russian forces into responding\u2014and thus giving U.S. reconnaissance aircraft an opportunity to gather useful intelligence.<\/p>\n<p>As the B-1 flew over Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn, a U.S. Air Force RC-135V electronic eavesdropping plane\u2014supported by a USAF KC-135 tanker\u2014lurked near Murmansk in northern Russia, home of the Russian Northern Fleet and other major forces.<br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\nThe U.S. Air Force in early February announced it would, for the first time, deploy B-1 bombers to Norway. The bombers arrived on Feb. 22 and wasted no time joining a NATO naval exercise off the Norwegian coast. The Baltic jaunt was the bombers\u2019 second major mission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile friendly bombers seen over the Baltic states may feel reassuring to people in those countries, the same bombers are seen just a few miles east as a growing NATO threat,\u201d Kristensen said. \u201cWhile that may help deter a hypothetical Russian attack, according to deterrence theory, it will do nothing to lessen Russia\u2019s military posturing along the border\u2014and may in fact fuel it further.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sure enough, the Russian air force has mobilized its own warplanes to match the American deployment. The Kremlin launched, at Russia\u2019s main bomber base in Engels, a new operation involving Tu-160s and Tu-95s. \u201cTasks are being worked out, including conducting air patrols in a given zone,\u201d the Kremlin announced.<\/p>\n<p>The Kaliningrad Sukhoi pilots meanwhile have undergone special counter-bomber training. &#8220;The crews of the Su-27 will carry out the tasks of intercepting simulated aircraft that violate the borders of the Kaliningrad region, as well as launch missile-launches at targets imitating cruise missiles and strategic bombers of the imaginary enemy,\u201d said Roman Martov, a Russian military spokesman.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to share this video with your friends!<\/p>\n<p>\u21a6 VIDEO\/THUMBNAIL : JUST ILLUSTRATION<br \/>\n\u21a6 The title and thumbnail are just sweeteners, make sure you listen to the news carefully<\/p>\n<p>The massive Thanks to everyone for watching and all of your support!<\/p>\n<p>Recent Upload : https:\/\/youtu.be\/R0WzuGxJ_Gc<br \/>\nMost Popular Video : https:\/\/youtu.be\/yDlbz2MDNu8<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>American Bombers Blaze Toward Russia In Provocative Show Of Force.
