Gotta love Britain. 

 

[Slawtering]

Wonder if the security levels will go up at RAF interceptor bases.

"Why can't the English learn to speak?"

Frankly they should have been shotdown.
The nerve of it, approaching us without contact with a (most likely empty) nuclear bomber!

 

[Mage246]

Britain stronk! Britain can into space!

 

[Kobrag]

It wouldn't be an unreasonable decision.

 

[Beny]

and Simon Ostrovsky has been freed

Here's his after action report:

"I guess ill come back, now that they know me"

What a badass

Britain stronk! Britain can into space!

sorry I cant hear you over the sound of your white house burning down

 

[rejenorst]

It wouldn't be an unreasonable decision.

But it might meet with an unreasonable response... therefore possibly making it an unreasonable decision given that these incursions into airspace happen rather frequently around the world between various powers and seem to turn around without requiring an overwhelming amount of force.

Let us take a moment to remember that cooler heads can potentially save the world:

Shooting down a lone plane that was no threat to you (already intercepted and deterred) is a sign of weakness and insecurity, not strength.

Spoiler

As is bring up events that took place 200 years ago, as if they had any modern significance.

Anyway, Britain is now a very tough, capable, mid-sized power. But the Empire is gone, and it's not coming back. Russia is a bigger dog than you, so either go at them in a pack or find a bigger dog to help you.

A silent intruding plane designed to armed with nuclear weapons is not a threat?

 

[Mage246]

It's a threat that you meet by scrambling fighters and telling them to **** off. Which they did. You would only shoot them down if they kept coming at you.

 

[Bluehawk]

What intrusion? They remained in international airspace the entire time. They do this frequently and nothing unusual occurred on either the UK or Russian side.

 

[Beny]

We shouldve deployed 007, that usually shows dem ruskies

 

[Untitled.]

He's probably drinking gin tonic with old colonials in Kenya by now.

 

[Swissky]

OSCE Personnel captured by separatists in Slovyensk. 
The separatists are claiming that there is a spy from Kiev in the group of observers, not surprised if that was the case.

Duh, they're stupid. They call journalists a 'fifth column'

 

[Swissky]

A fifth column?
Haven't heard that expression before.

 

[Duke Daniel Milutin]

Beacause that's what most of them are. Have you heard about information warfare?
