So they weren't flying in British airspace, and the disruption came from the British Typhoons flying through commercial airspace to reach the Bears, which were escorted the entire time?

Is this a clickbait article, or are we supposed to be upset at something?

Well this isn't the first time its happened, its just another incident to add to the pile and admittedly your right this one is no where near as bad as the others especially the example I put below the article.

The articles title is definitely click bait though mentioning summoning the ambassador as if this was a major diplomatic emergency.

We laugh now.

We won't be laughing when we're living in Russian concentration camps.

And the Russians are living in Chinese concentration camps in turn.

Fucking Reds.

I always found the idea of China invading Siberia extremely interesting, they have as significant military district setup over there for that very reason and a large majority of Russia's aircraft are stationed out there as well. With roughly 2000 aircraft servicable at one time by the Russian airforce they have a hard time covering all of there territory in detail.

Serious / Britain summons Russian ambassador after bombers intercepted

London (AFP) - Britain said it had summoned the Russian ambassador to London on Thursday after Russian bombers were found flying close to British airspace, saying the incident had disrupted civil aviation.

The move comes after a string of similar incidents and amid tense relations with Moscow over the conflict in Ukraine and a London inquiry into the poisoning of former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko.

The Ministry of Defence said such incursions by Russian planes were currently running at around one a month and that the latest happened off the south coast of England.

"Russian aircraft manoeuvres yesterday are part of an increasing pattern of out of area operations by Russian aircraft," the Foreign Office said in a statement.

"While the Russian planes did not enter sovereign UK airspace and were escorted by RAF Typhoons throughout the time they were in the UK area of interest, the Russian planes caused disruption to civil aviation.

"That is why we summoned the Russian Ambassador today to account for the incident."

The defence ministry said that the planes involved in the latest incident Wednesday were Tupolev Tu-95 bombers, known by their NATO classification as Russian "bears".

A spokesman for the Civil Aviation Authority, which regulates aviation, said he was "not sure where this idea has come from" that there had been disruption to civil aviation.

He suggested it may have been the two British Typhoons which caused any disruption as they may have flown through airspace near Bournemouth, southern England, where there is a small civilian airport.

"It was probably two Typhoons that were scrambled to intercept that caused some disruption," he said.

In November, four Russian navy warships were spotted sailing through the English Channel and were accompanied by a Royal Navy patrol boat.

The Soviet Uni...errr Russian Federation is back to its antics of almost causing mid-air collisions again (Or I guess they consider it a show of force with 60 year old bombers), while this has been going on for the better part of a year now, they seem to be getting a lot more adventurous. While no one should be worried because they are in international waters the biggest threat is mid-air collisions which there have been a lot of close calls recently. I can remember almost 4 off the top of my head that involved SU-27's flying without there radars or IFF tags on which is a big no no in a commercial flight zone. Russia likes to test NATO air defenses, any time they get NATO country's to send aircraft up they get to see the response, IE what aircraft they are using and what radars pick them up. Since Russia feels its backed into a corner with the Ukrainian crisis this is just there way of venting and keeping NATO on edge.

The TU-95 bear is a sexy looking bomber though, not gonna lie, keep flaunting it Russia.
 
So, thoughts, comments, questions on the impending Soviet invasion of Europe?

Fortunately no, but I always get a very strange feeling of vulnerability (I guess you could describe it as) when I hear a person has died who went to my High School which has happened twice now I think.

Never.
Straight edges honestly make me uncomfortable.

I don't look down on anyone who does, and Ive been around friends when they are smoking. Smoking weed or tobacco has just never been something I want to do.

In Call of Duty they are cowards >.>

But in war, it depends. Do they kill anyone they can?
Suppose they wound an enemy soldier, and he's being dragged by a teammate to safety. He shoots the enemy soldier helping his wounded teammate.

It depends on the soldier's conduct and combat behavior. In that regard, any soldier can be a coward or cold-blooded, not just snipers.

Yup you pretty much nailed it there.

Its a stupid remark, tell that to a German, Soviet or Japanese sniper during World War 2, back than if you got caught as a sniper they shot you on the spot.

I'd say the job takes a bit of bravery.
