Revelations that Russia will recommence Cold-War style long-range bomber flight deployments to the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean are likely to further strain relations between Moscow and the United States. The announcement that the flights will begin again 20 years after they ended with the collapse of the USSR adds to the dozens of sorties that Russian planes have completed all across Europe in the last nine months. As happened during the Cold War, bombers or reconnaissance planes fly close to a Western country's airspace; the local air force scrambles fighter jets to intercept the plane; the Russians never enter the actual country, but the potential for armed confrontation remains high.   

The tension is further underlined by Russian incursions into Ukraine Wednesday. 

While these aggressive tactics from Russia are believed by many to be a diplomatic ploy, they are still cause for alarm, said Sarah Lain, a research fellow with expertise in Russia at the Royal United Services Institute in London.

“I think it’s definitely of concern,” Lain said. “Because although Russia has the right to operate in international air space, the fact that they’ve ramped it up so much to now expanding itself outside of Europe is significant, because it really shows how this whole NATO expansion threat is a real danger to Russia.”

No one said we are. Putin just wanted to show the world Abbott is his little bitch and succeeded beyond expectation.

In the face of what the Russians have been up to in Europe and further afield I think we can reasonably expect them to sail pretty close to Australian waters and cause our navy and airforce to scramble. It does appear that Russia is returning to cold war tactics...interesting times ahead.
I predicted on this forum some time ago that along with Russia being forced to secure their one and only warm water port (Crimea) they would also feel that their backs were being forced against the wall with the Ukraine looking an insecure front.This reaction was foreseeable and the west are being overly bullyish in my opinion.
