It is normal in as much as they are unarmed. Russia has been conducting flight in that coast for so many years. But the decison to scramble a pair Raptor is a good one. In case they might want to try nonsense. |

The Russian planes flew close to the Alaska coast,right? The answer could be that the Russians came to check on the land that they leased/sold to the U.S.A. in 1867(approximately 150 years ago). |
