Russian fighter jet flies with 5 feet of US Navy plane, State Department says

The incident took place over the Black Sea on Monday, the State Department said.

 The pilot of a Russian Su-27 fighter was "closing to within five feet and crossing directly in front of" the American EP-3 aircraft's flight path, department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said in a statement. That caused the American surveillance plane "to fly through the Su-27's jet wash," the U.S. 6th Fleet said. The intercept lasted two hours and 40 minutes, the Navy said.

DYI:  In the Black Sea??  What if the Russian’s positioned their aircraft carrier in the Gulf of Mexico and then complained about a U.S. fighter pilot coming within 5 feet of one their radar planes.  Our U.S. State Department along with all branches of the military would be going CRAZY.  So what do we expect in the Black Sea a sphere of influence Russia has been protecting for over 500 years?
