Nothing the Russian do surprise me, not after spending 7 years in the Navy during the cold war either tracking them in a fast attack or hiding from them in a boomer. However the funniest was when I spent a year or so flying on P3's out of Willow Grove NAS, the antics they went thru when they heard pattern of sonobouys hit the water was hilarious, even funnier was when the second pattern went down....ah, the good old days when you KNEW who the bad guys were and they weren't in washington like they are now....
