The Dutch military intercepted a pair of Russian Tu-95 Bear strategic bombers several days ago. The hulking aircraft apparently got close enough to the Netherlands to draw the attention of its F-16s. Between the turboprop behemoths — first flight: 1952 — and the B&W footage, I bet I can go downstairs here in post-quake D.C. and get a cuppa coffee for a dime.
