Two US B-1B Lancer strategic bombers who are able to carry nuclear weapons flying at the boundaries of Russia over Lithuania. This was reported by the command of the US Air Force in Europe and Africa, RIA Novosti reports.
Airplanes flew off from the airfield in the UK, and after flew over the territory of Lithuania, among Russian borders, and retired in Germany. Flights were held to “increase the readiness and interaction of gunners responsible for coordinating air strikes to support land forces.”
It is noted that the actions of American crews were coordinated with Lithuanian and British airproofs that identified imitated terrestrial targets. Both B-1B Lancer were transferred to Europe from the air base in Texas.
