I don't think they do, they just aim for the UK, the UK sends up some intercepts, and they meet in international airspace and the Tu will turn off and head away, as they've made their point.

My first thought when I saw the heading was, that's overkill they usually use German Shepherds for security.

But a Bear?

I missed off the bit about reading it at first glance as British Aerospace too.

Just to explain the security bit smile

There was one at Fairford a while back, it must have encroached our airspace to get there.

Wish one would come back otherwise Im going to have to go to Russia to see one.
