Russian airspace control systems over the Black Sea detected aerial targets approaching the State Border of the Russian Federation.

To prevent a violation of the State Border of the Russian Federation, a Su-27 fighter from the air defense alert forces was scrambled.

The crew of the Russian fighter identified the aerial targets as an RC-135 strategic reconnaissance aircraft and two Typhoon fighters of the British Royal Air Force.

Upon the approach of the Russian fighter, the foreign military aircraft turned away from the State Border of the Russian Federation.

The Russian aircraft safely returned to its home airfield. No violation of the State Border of the Russian Federation occurred.

The flight of the Russian fighter was carried out in strict accordance with international rules for the use of airspace over neutral waters, without crossing air routes or dangerously approaching foreign aircraft.
