The crew of the American reconnaissance aircraft decided not to try their luck in the zone of destruction of Russian missiles.

A few hours ago, in the Mediterranean, near the coast of Syria, the ships of the Russian Navy conducted large-scale rocket exercises with missile launches. Despite the fact that the American military reconnaissance aircraft Boeing E-3A Sentry went to the zone of military exercises, the crew of the American “flying radar” refused to enter the airspace next to the Russian warships.

The map of the flight route of the American military reconnaissance aircraft Boeing E-3A Sentry shows that the “flying radar” desperately cuts circles near the southern coast of Cyprus, without risking even approaching Russian warships. What exactly the mission was performed by the crew of the Boeing E-3A Sentry, so far remains unknown, but given the possibilities of this aircraft, it is logical to assume that the observation was carried out precisely by Russian military maneuvers.

“In the USA, they are obviously trying to establish the danger inherent in the Navy of the Russian Federation. Considering the long distance at which the American Sentry “cut” the circles, it is logical to assume that the Pentagon did not want to test the Russian EW systems and anti-aircraft missiles in action ”, - the analyst notes.

Remarkable is the fact that reconnaissance lasted more than 5 hours.
