Russia resumes nuke bomber sorties
Russians have really got back into the Cold War business, this time two Tu-95 bombers flew to Guam in the Pacific Ocean on Wednesday.
Maj. Gen. Pavel Androsov, head of long-range aviation in the Russian air force, said a bomber flew over Guam and "exchanged smiles" with U.S. pilots who intercepted it.
However U.S officials disputed the claim, saying the two bombers came no closer than 100 miles to any U.S. aircraft and no closer than 300 miles to the Navy ships, and that there was no visual contact.
