CNN: Russian Su-27 Barrel Rolls U.S Air Force Plane

‘This is a very high speed, very dangerous maneuver and it’s estimated the Russians came within 100 feet of the U.S. aircraft’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

STARR: "It was earlier today, Brooke, we now know according to two U.S. Defense officials in the baltic sea, an air force reconnaissance plane flying in international air space when a Russia SU-27 came alongside and did this barrel roll maneuver. Of course, what that means is the plane came up alongside the American plane, inverted at high speed and flew around and came back to the other side. This is a very high speed, very dangerous maneuver and it's estimated the Russians came within 100 feet of the U.S. aircraft."
