“On September 25, 2020, Russian airspace control devices over the neutral waters of the Baltic Sea detected two B-52H strategic bombers of the US Air Force approaching the State Border of the Russian Federation,” RIA Novosti quotes the agency.

The fighter carried out aerial patrols along the Russian border, and after removing US aircraft from it, returned to the airfield.

Previously, the Su-27 climbed to intercept the American B-52H strategic bomber, which was approaching the Russian border from Poland.
