Dramatic moment Russian fighter jet intercepts two US nuclear bombers over Baltic
Dramatic footage shows the moment a Russian fighter jet intercepted two US B-52 nuclear bombers over the Baltic Sea.

This video filmed from the SU-35 shows the aircraft flying alongside the bombers as they approached Russian airspace.
Russia’s defence ministry said the fighter jet was sent to prevent a border violation.
