General

Off the coast of Alaska, bombers from Russia and China flew together for the first time in international airspace off the coast of Alaska, in a new show of expanding military cooperation that U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said Thursday raises concerns. These flights were not seen as threats, but this was the first time that Chinese bomber aircraft have flown within the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone. This was also the first time Russian and Chines aircraft have taken off from the same northeast Russia base. Former Senior Defense Intelligence Official Mark Chandler joined LiveNOW from FOX to further discuss.
