How much of this new Russian activity do you reckon is down to us deploying Typhoon on QRA and the U.S having the F-22 on guard...I read today in a spotter magazine how our U.S friends deployed some RC135 thingymajigs to Mildenhall and god bless the Boys and girls at Boscombe deployed a BAC 111 with a pod on its belly to happen to be in the same airspace as the Indian Sukoi's in the vain hope of an emission, strikes me as a tit for tat Elint fest!!
