Mirage 2000 vs. Tupolev TU-95

Post by blaster_e11 » Tue Jun 10, 2008 3:03 am

Two Mirage 2000-5 fighters (being part of the NATO force in charge of the protection of the Iceland airspace) have intercepted (yesterday June the 9th) and escorted two Russian TU-95 bombers at 220 kilometers off the western coast of Iceland.
The French fighters have followed the TU-95 for 90 minutes and took some pictures.
