The US Air Force is asking for tough interceptions of its aircraft.

The previous afternoon, the Pentagon decided to take advantage of the fuss after Israeli missile strikes on Syria and the crash of a Russian Tu-22M3 strategic missile-carrying bomber, and sent its military reconnaissance aircraft to Russian military bases in Syria, once again trying to collect detailed information about Russian anti-aircraft S-300 Favorit and S-400 Triumph missile systems protecting Syrian airspace in the west.

According to data available to the Avia.pro resource, a US Navy Boeing P-8A Poseidon military aircraft was near Russian military bases in Syria, and we are talking about the supply base in Tartus and the Khmeimim airbase in the province of Latakia, for more than an hour and a half . The maximum approach of an American military aircraft with the Russian Khmeimim military airbase was about 45 kilometers, which completely allowed the US military to obtain information about the operation of Russian air defense and missile defense systems.

Experts do not exclude that the success of Israeli strikes on Syria may be due to this fact, although there is no real evidence of this. According to experts, Russia may begin to escort and intercept US military aircraft near its military facilities in Syria.
