Tu-95MS missile carriers of the Russian Aerospace Forces

Today, a pair of Tu-95MS missile carriers of the Russian Aerospace Forces, accompanied by Su-30SM VVO cover fighters, performed a scheduled flight into the airspace over the Sea of ​​Japan.

Considering that the General Staff of Japan has not yet commented on this event, and the statement of the Russian Ministry of Defense that in some areas of the flight a group of aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces was accompanied by F-16 fighters of the South Korean Air Force, we can assume that the flight route was more gravitating towards the Korean Peninsula, rather than to the Japanese islands.
