“The conduct of one Russian Su-35 was unsafe, unprofessional, and endangered all," Air Force General Gregory Guillot said.

The U.S. military on Monday released video of what it said was an unsafe maneuver by a Russian fighter jet near Alaska during an intercept by the U.S. military last week.

The United States regularly carries out aerial intercepts of Russian aircraft in international airspace near Alaska, and usually says they are carried out in a safe and professional manner. But this time was different, officials say.

“The conduct of one Russian Su-35 was unsafe, unprofessional, and endangered all — not what you’d see in a professional air force,” Air Force General Gregory Guillot, who oversees U.S. forces in North America said in a statement posted on X.

Russia’s embassy in Washington did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

"Caught on camera" like some soccer mom was in a mall parking lot with her camera out.

Well, the standard has changed since it was a polaroid of giving him the bird in 4G inverted dive some 40 years ago.
