Russia-America: Here Russia has claimed to expel American supersonic bombers if they come within its territory. The Russian Defense Ministry has accused two American supersonic bombers of attempting to enter Russia’s border over the Barents Sea. The Barents Sea is located north of Russia and NATO member states Norway, Finland and Sweden. There has been no statement from America yet regarding this clash between Russia and America. There is a possibility of increase in tension between America and Russia after this incident.
NATO countries are conducting military exercises
Actually, NATO countries are conducting military exercises called ‘Nordic Response’ over the Barents Sea. This is being said to be the biggest military exercise of NATO countries in the last decade. In this exercise, armies of 32 countries are practicing to respond to Russia’s attack. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, two American B-1B supersonic bombers were coming towards the Russian border, to respond to them Russia had sent its MiG-31 aircraft. This incident happened when Russia is mourning after the terrorist attack in Moscow last Friday, in which 133 people were reported dead.
Power of America’s bomber
The B-1B bomber aircraft of the US Air Force has been serving in the US Army since the Cold War. This aircraft is capable of carrying weight up to 34 thousand kilograms. American bomber aircraft can be equipped with nuclear weapons. The length of the B-1B aircraft is said to be 146 feet, which is one of the largest supersonic aircraft ever built.
Power of Russia’s MiG-31 fighter jet
The MiG-31 fighter jet with which Russia chased away the American jet is much smaller than the B-1B. This aircraft has been designed to combat missile and bomber aircraft. This Russian aircraft is capable of flying at a speed of 3000 kilometers per hour and can also carry many missiles with itself. Let us tell you that after the Russia-Ukraine war, there is continuous tension between Russia and western countries.
