A United States military spy plane was buzzed by a Russian fighter jet Tuesday, CBN News has confirmed with Pentagon sources.
Sources say the Russian Su-27 military jet performed a "safe" but "unprofessional" maneuver and came within 20 or so feet of a Navy P-8 surveillance plane.
The incident happened in international airspace over the Baltic Sea.
You may recall a similar incident took place back in January when a Russian fighter jet buzzed a US spy plane over the Black Sea.
Pentagon sources say no one was hurt.
